TL;DR: It is suggested that thinning associated with ocean-driven increased basal melt can trigger increased iceberg calving, implying that iceberg calve may play an overlooked role in the demise of shrinking ice shelves, and is more sensitive to ocean forcing than expected from steady state calving estimates.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyzed globally distributed calving data sets from Svalbard, Alaska (USA), Greenland and Antarctica in combination with simulations from a first-principles, particle-based numerical calving model to investigate the size and inter-event time of calving events.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented a map of the entire Antarctic continent from ETM+ and MODIS data and estimated the total area of BIAs in Antarctica during the data acquisition period is 234 549 km 2, or 1.67% of the area of the continent.

TL;DR: In this article, the sensitivity of the BISICLES adaptive mesh ice sheet model to small-amplitude height fluctuations on different spatial scales in the bedrock topography provided by Bedmap2 in the catchments of Pine Island Glacier, the Amery Ice shelf and a region of East Antarctica including the Aurora Basin, Law Dome and Totten Glacier was tested.

TL;DR: This work represents a pioneering attempt to comprehensively assess UAS-SfM survey capability in fast ice environments, and could serve as a reference for future improvements.
