Meltwater Pulse 1A sea-level-rise patterns explained by global cascade of ice loss
Over the last deglaciation, global sea level rose by ~120–130 m, 10–20 m of which was attributed to a singular, catastrophic event known as…
Winter subglacial meltwater detected in a Greenland fjord
The interaction between glacier fronts and ocean waters is one of the key uncertainties for projecting future ice mass loss. Direct observations at…
Rare ice-base temperature measurements in Antarctica reveal a cold base in contrast with predictions
The Antarctic bed demonstrates complex behaviour comprising alternating warm- and cold-based areas. However, the distribution of warm- and cold-bas…
