Journal Article
Balaban, C., Roberts, D., Evans, D., & Jamieson, S. (2024). Past glaciation of temperate‐continental mountains: A model for a debris‐charged plateau icefield/cirque glacier landsystem in the Southern Carpathians, Romania. Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, 49(2), 601-621. https://doi.org/10.1002/esp.5723

Reconstructing the extent, style, timing and drivers of past mountain glaciation is crucial in both understanding past atmospheric circulation and predicting future climate change. Unlike in high‐elevation mountains situated in maritime and continent...

An ancient river landscape preserved beneath the East Antarctic Ice Sheet (2023)
Journal Article

The East Antarctic Ice Sheet (EAIS) has its origins ca. 34 million years ago. Since then, the impact of climate change and past fluctuations in the EAIS margin has been reflected in periods of extensive vs. restricted ice cover and the modification o...

Extensive and anomalous grounding line retreat at Vanderford Glacier, Vincennes Bay, Wilkes Land, East Antarctica (2023)
Journal Article
Picton, H. J., Stokes, C. R., Jamieson, S. S. R., Floricioiu, D., & Krieger, L. (2023). Extensive and anomalous grounding line retreat at Vanderford Glacier, Vincennes Bay, Wilkes Land, East Antarctica. The Cryosphere, 17(8), 3593–3616. https://doi.org/10.5194/tc-2022-217

Wilkes Land, East Antarctica, has been losing mass at an accelerating rate over recent decades in response to enhanced oceanic forcing. Overlying the Aurora Subglacial Basin, it has been referred to as the ‘weak underbelly’ of the East Antarctic Ice...

Direct measurement of warm Atlantic Intermediate Water close to the grounding line of Nioghalvfjerdsfjorden (79° N) Glacier, northeast Greenland (2023)
Journal Article
Bentley, M. J., Smith, J. A., Jamieson, S. S., Lindeman, M. R., Rea, B. R., Humbert, A., …Roberts, D. H. (2023). Direct measurement of warm Atlantic Intermediate Water close to the grounding line of Nioghalvfjerdsfjorden (79° N) Glacier, northeast Greenland. The Cryosphere, 17(5), 1821-1837. https://doi.org/10.5194/tc-17-1821-2023

The Northeast Greenland Ice Stream has recently seen significant change to its floating margins and has been identified as vulnerable to future climate warming. Inflow of warm Atlantic Intermediate Water (AIW) from the continental shelf has been obse...

Increased warm water intrusions could cause mass loss in East Antarctica during the next 200 years (2023)
Journal Article
Jordan, J. R., Miles, B., Gudmundsson, G., Jamieson, S., Jenkins, A., & Stokes, C. (2023). Increased warm water intrusions could cause mass loss in East Antarctica during the next 200 years. Nature Communications, 14(1), Article 1825. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-023-37553-2

The East Antarctic Ice Sheet (EAIS) is currently surrounded by relatively cool water, but climatic shifts have the potential to increase basal melting via intrusions of warm modified Circumpolar Deep Water (mCDW) onto the continental shelf. Here we u... Read More about Increased warm water intrusions could cause mass loss in East Antarctica during the next 200 years.

Holocene history of the 79° N ice shelf reconstructed from epishelf lake and uplifted glaciomarine sediments (2023)
Journal Article

Nioghalvfjerdsbrae, or 79◦ N Glacier, is the largest marine-terminating glacier draining the Northeast Greenland Ice Stream (NEGIS). In recent years, its ∼ 70 km long fringing ice shelf (hereafter referred to as the 79◦ N ice shelf) has thinned, and...

The geomorphological record of an ice stream to ice shelf transition in Northeast Greenland (2023)
Journal Article

Understanding ice stream dynamics over decadal to millennial timescales is crucial for improving numerical model projections of ice sheet behaviour and future ice loss. In marine-terminating settings, ice shelves play a critical role in controlling i... Read More about The geomorphological record of an ice stream to ice shelf transition in Northeast Greenland.
