Journal ArticleDOI

Seasonal variability in the dynamics of marine-terminating outlet glaciers in Greenland

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present observations of front position, flow speed, near-surface air temperature and ocean conditions for six large marine-terminating glaciers in the Uummannaq region of West Greenland, to investigate controls on short-term glacier dynamics.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mass balance of Greenland's three largest outlet glaciers - 2000–2010

TL;DR: In this article, the authors derived monthly mass balance rates and cumulative balance from discharge and surface mass balance (SMB) rates for Greenland's three largest outlet glaciers, Helheim, Kangerdlugssuaq and Jakobshavn Isbrae, from 2000 through 2010.
Journal ArticleDOI

Using surface velocities to calculate ice thickness and bed topography: a case study at Columbia Glacier, Alaska, USA

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a new method that calculates ice thickness via an estimate of ice flux, which decreases the computational time required compared to a solution on the whole grid, and test the method on Columbia Glacier, a large tidewater glacier in Alaska, USA, and compare calculated and measured ice thicknesses.
Journal ArticleDOI

Oceanic mechanical forcing of a marine-terminating Greenland glacier

TL;DR: In this article, the authors quantify short-term changes in ice flow speed and calving at a major West Greenland glacier and examine their relationship to the presence of the sea-ice melange and tidal stage.
Journal ArticleDOI

Changes in the dynamics of marine terminating outlet glaciers in west Greenland (2000–2009)

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigate changes in west Greenland outlet glacier dynamics and the potential controls behind their behavior, derive time series of front position, surface elevation, and surface slope for 59 marine terminating outlet glaciers and surface speeds for select glaciers in West Greenland from 2000 to 2009.
