Ice-sheet dynamics and ice streaming along the coastal parts of northern Norway. (2008)
Journal Article
Ottesen, D., Stokes, C., Rise, L., & Olsen, L. (2008). Ice-sheet dynamics and ice streaming along the coastal parts of northern Norway. Quaternary Science Reviews, 27, 922-940. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.quascirev.2008.01.014

In this paper, regional and high-resolution bathymetric data are used to reconstruct the pattern and dynamics of ice-sheet flow in the fjord and shelf areas of northern Norway. Interpretation of the morphology of the sea floor reveals a series of gla... Read More about Ice-sheet dynamics and ice streaming along the coastal parts of northern Norway..

Superimposition of ribbed moraines on a palaeo-ice-stream bed: implications for ice stream dynamics and shutdown (2008)
Journal Article
Stokes, C., Lian, O., Tulaczyk, S., & Clark, C. (2008). Superimposition of ribbed moraines on a palaeo-ice-stream bed: implications for ice stream dynamics and shutdown. Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, 33(4), 593-609. https://doi.org/10.1002/esp.1671

The sediments and landforms preserved on palaeo-ice-stream beds can provide important information about their subglacial conditions and flow mechanisms, and the processes accompanying their shutdown. In this paper, detailed observations of an intrigu... Read More about Superimposition of ribbed moraines on a palaeo-ice-stream bed: implications for ice stream dynamics and shutdown.

Formation mechanisms for ice-stream shear margin moraines (2008)
Journal Article
Hindmarsh, R., & Stokes, C. (2008). Formation mechanisms for ice-stream shear margin moraines. Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, 33(4), 610-626. https://doi.org/10.1002/esp.1665

The lateral shear margins of palaeo-ice stream beds are occasionally marked by large curvilinear moraines, but little work has addressed how they might form. In this paper we review the characteristics of ‘lateral shear margin moraines’ and present t... Read More about Formation mechanisms for ice-stream shear margin moraines.

A glacier inventory for the Buordakh Massif, Cherskiy Range, Northeast Siberia, and evidence for recent glacier recession (2008)
Journal Article
Gurney, S., Popovnin, V., Shahgedanova, M., & Stokes, C. (2008). A glacier inventory for the Buordakh Massif, Cherskiy Range, Northeast Siberia, and evidence for recent glacier recession. Arctic, Antarctic, and Alpine Research, 40(1), 81-88. https://doi.org/10.1657/1523-0430%2806-042%29%5Bgurney%5D2.0.co%3B2

The Buordakh Massif, in the Cherskiy Range of northeast Siberia, contains mountains over 3000 m and, despite its arid climate, numerous glaciers. This paper presents a glacier inventory for the region and documents some 80 glaciers, which range in si...
