An extensive subglacial lake and canyon system in Princess Elizabeth Land, East Antarctica (2015)
Journal Article
Jamieson, S., Ross, N., Greenbaum, J., Young, D., Aitken, A., Roberts, J., …Siegert, M. (2016). An extensive subglacial lake and canyon system in Princess Elizabeth Land, East Antarctica. Geology, 44(2), 87-90. https://doi.org/10.1130/g37220.1

The subglacial landscape of Princess Elizabeth Land (PEL) in East Antarctica is poorly known due to a paucity of ice thickness measurements. This is problematic given its importance for understanding ice sheet dynamics and landscape and climate evolu...

The surficial and subglacial geomorphology of western Dronning Maud Land, Antarctica (2015)
Journal Article
Chang, M., Jamieson, S., Bentley, M., & Stokes, C. (2016). The surficial and subglacial geomorphology of western Dronning Maud Land, Antarctica. Journal of Maps, 12(5), 892-903. https://doi.org/10.1080/17445647.2015.1097289

The surficial and subglacial geomorphology of ∼220,000 km2 of western Dronning Maud Land (WDML), Antarctica, is presented at a scale of 1:750,000. The mapped area includes the Stancomb-Wills Glacier north of 75°25′S and follows the grounded ice margi...

Surficial geology and geomorphology of the Kumtor Gold Mine, Kyrgyzstan: human impacts on mountain glacier landsystems (2015)
Journal Article
Evans, D., Ewertowski, M., Jamieson, S., & Orton, C. (2016). Surficial geology and geomorphology of the Kumtor Gold Mine, Kyrgyzstan: human impacts on mountain glacier landsystems. Journal of Maps, 12(5), 757-769. https://doi.org/10.1080/17445647.2015.1071720

A 1:50,000 scale map of the surficial geology and geomorphology of the mountain glacier landsystem and the human impacts of the Kumtor Gold Mine operations in the Akshiirak massif was compiled from a 0.5 m resolution pan-sharpened image from Digital...

Rapid advance of two mountain glaciers in response to mine-related debris loading (2015)
Journal Article
Jamieson, S., Ewertowski, M., & Evans, D. (2015). Rapid advance of two mountain glaciers in response to mine-related debris loading. Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, 120(7), 1418-1435. https://doi.org/10.1002/2015jf003504

Rapid glacier advance is known to occur by a range of mechanisms. However, although large-scale debris loading has been proposed as a process for causing rapid terminus advance, it has rarely been observed. We use satellite remote-sensing data to obs...

Basal topographic controls on rapid retreat of Humboldt Glacier, northern Greenland (2015)
Journal Article
Carr, J., Vieli, A., Stokes, C., Jamieson, S., Palmer, S., Christoffersen, P., …Young, D. (2015). Basal topographic controls on rapid retreat of Humboldt Glacier, northern Greenland. Journal of Glaciology, 61(225), 137-150. https://doi.org/10.3189/2015jog14j128

Discharge from marine-terminating outlet glaciers accounts for up to half the recent mass loss from the Greenland ice sheet, yet the causal factors are not fully understood. Here we assess the factors controlling the behaviour of Humboldt Glacier (HG... Read More about Basal topographic controls on rapid retreat of Humboldt Glacier, northern Greenland.
