An improved Antarctic dataset for high resolution numerical ice sheet models (ALBMAP v1) (2010)
Journal Article
Le Brocq, A., Payne, A., & Vieli, A. (2010). An improved Antarctic dataset for high resolution numerical ice sheet models (ALBMAP v1). Earth System Science Data, 2(2), 247-260. https://doi.org/10.5194/essd-2-247-2010

The dataset described in this paper (ALBMAP) has been created for the purposes of high-resolution numerical ice sheet modelling of the Antarctic Ice Sheet. It brings together data on the ice sheet configuration (e.g. ice surface and ice thickness) an...

New insights on Arctic Quaternary climate variability from palaeo-records and numerical modelling (2010)
Journal Article
Jakobsson, M., Long, A., Ingólfsson, O., Kjær, K., & Spielhagen, R. (2010). New insights on Arctic Quaternary climate variability from palaeo-records and numerical modelling. Quaternary Science Reviews, 29(25-26), 3349-3358. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.quascirev.2010.08.016

Terrestrial and marine geological archives in the Arctic contain information on environmental change through Quaternary interglacial–glacial cycles. The Arctic Palaeoclimate and its Extremes (APEX) scientific network aims to better understand the mag...

A numerical study of glacier advance over deforming till (2010)
Journal Article
Leysinger Vieli, G., & Gudmundsson, G. (2010). A numerical study of glacier advance over deforming till. The Cryosphere, 4(3), 359-372. https://doi.org/10.5194/tc-4-359-2010

The advance of a glacier over a deforming sediment layer is analysed numerically. We treat this problem as a contact problem involving two slowly-deforming viscous bodies. The surface evolution of the two bodies, and of the contact interface between... Read More about A numerical study of glacier advance over deforming till.

Redefining ‘Aid’ in the China-Africa Context (2010)
Journal Article
Tan-Mullins, M., Mohan, G., & Power, M. (2010). Redefining ‘Aid’ in the China-Africa Context. Development and Change, 41(5), 857-881. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1467-7660.2010.01662.x

Discussions on the politics of Chinese engagement with African development have been marked by increasing concern over Chinese use of aid in exchange for preferential energy deals. Normative liberal discourse criticizes the Chinese for disbursing ‘ro... Read More about Redefining ‘Aid’ in the China-Africa Context.

Re-advance of Scottish Ice into the Solway Lowlands (Cumbria, UK) during the Main Late Devensian deglaciation (2010)
Journal Article
Livingstone, S., Evans, D., & Ó Cofaigh, C. (2010). Re-advance of Scottish Ice into the Solway Lowlands (Cumbria, UK) during the Main Late Devensian deglaciation. Quaternary Science Reviews, 29(19-20), 2544-2570. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.quascirev.2010.04.007

The complex glacial geomorphology and stratigraphy of the Solway Lowlands (Cumbria, UK) reflects dynamic ice flow during the Main Late Devensian Glaciation, with numerous ice-flow shifts, and re-advances now recognised. The final incursion of Scottis... Read More about Re-advance of Scottish Ice into the Solway Lowlands (Cumbria, UK) during the Main Late Devensian deglaciation.
