Ice-shelf buttressing and the stability of marine ice sheets
Read more of: Ice-shelf buttressing and the stability of marine ice sheetsIce-shelf buttressing and the stability of marine-type ice sheets are investigated numerically. Buttressing effects are analysed for a situation where a stable grounding line is located on a bed sloping […]

Wave-current interactions in a wave-dominated tidal inlet
Read more of: Wave-current interactions in a wave-dominated tidal inletWave-current interactions play a major role in the dynamics of shallow tidal inlets. This study investigates these interactions at a natural inlet, with a strong focus on current-induced changes on […]

Characterizing the glaciological conditions at Halvfarryggen ice dome, Dronning Maud Land, Antarctica
Read more of: Characterizing the glaciological conditions at Halvfarryggen ice dome, Dronning Maud Land, AntarcticaWe present a comprehensive approach (including field data, remote sensing and an anisotropic ice-flow model) to characterize Halvfarryggen ice dome in coastal Dronning Maud Land, Antarctica. This is a potential […]

A comprehensive isotopic investigation of habitat preferences in nonbreeding albatrosses from the Southern Ocean
Read more of: A comprehensive isotopic investigation of habitat preferences in nonbreeding albatrosses from the Southern OceanAlbatrosses are among the world’s most endangered seabirds. Th reats during the nonbreeding period have major impacts on their population dynamics, but for most species, detailed information on distribution and […]

Environmental management of a scientific field camp in Maritime Antarctica: reconciling research impacts with conservation goals in remote ice-free areas
Read more of: Environmental management of a scientific field camp in Maritime Antarctica: reconciling research impacts with conservation goals in remote ice-free areasCurrently, a substantial proportion of Antarctic research is carried out through deployment of field camps, but little detailed information on the running of these facilities is often available. The remoteness […]
