Regression on Ice: Function approximation for the mathematically-inclined glaciologist

17 Sep 2023 | Contributor(s): Noah J Bergam

Modern satellite-based analysis of the ice sheets presents a profound statistical-geometric problem: how do we make sense of scattered, noisy measurements of vast, steadily evolving surfaces like the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets? In these lecture notes, I attempt to provide the...

Thermodynamics and dynamics patterns of extreme snow melting in Greenland

08 May 2023 | Contributor(s): Josep Bonsoms Garcia, Marc Oliva, Juan Ignacio López-Moreno

Climate warming is altering the Greenland snow melting rates, duration, and spatial patterns. Here, we examine the summer (June, July and August) extreme (percentile 90th ) snow melting events for the 1959 to 2022 period. Spatial and temporal snow melting is linked with the...

Evaluating the Greenland Ice Sheet interior: Design and applicability of the layer age tracer ELSA

24 Apr 2023 | Contributor(s): Therese Rieckh

Modeling ice flow variability of the Kangerlussuaq Glacier, southeast Greenland, during 1900-2021

21 Apr 2023 | Contributor(s): Eigil Yuichi Hyldgaard Lippert, M. Morlighem (contributor), C. Gong (contributor), S. Khan (contributor)

Observations show significant ice loss associated with the speed-up of the Kangerlussuaq Glacier (KG) in Greenland since the 2000s. Short-term perturbations significantly impact its mass balance on decadal scales. Utilising a long-term data record going back to 1900 together with the Ice-sheet...
