GPS-observed elastic deformation due to surface mass balance variability in the Southern Antarctic Peninsula (2022)
Journal Article
Koulali, A., Whitehouse, P., Clarke, P., van den Broeke, M., Nield, G., King, M., Bentley, M., Wouters, B., & Wilson, T. (2022). GPS-observed elastic deformation due to surface mass balance variability in the Southern Antarctic Peninsula. Geophysical Research Letters, 49(4), Article e2021GL097109. https://doi.org/10.1029/2021gl097109

In Antarctica, Global Positioning System (GPS) vertical time series exhibit non-linear signals over a wide range of temporal scales. To explain these non-linearities, a number of hypotheses have been proposed, among them the short-term rapid solid Ea...

Late Holocene relative sea levels near Palmer Station, northern Antarctic Peninsula, strongly controlled by late Holocene ice-mass changes (2018)
Journal Article
Simms, A., Whitehouse, P., Simkins, L., Nield, G., DeWitt, R., & Bentley, M. (2018). Late Holocene relative sea levels near Palmer Station, northern Antarctic Peninsula, strongly controlled by late Holocene ice-mass changes. Quaternary Science Reviews, 199, 49-59. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.quascirev.2018.09.017

Many studies of Holocene relative sea-level (RSL) changes across Antarctica assume that their reconstructions record uplift from glacial isostatic adjustment caused by the demise of the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) ice sheets. However, recent analysis... Read More about Late Holocene relative sea levels near Palmer Station, northern Antarctic Peninsula, strongly controlled by late Holocene ice-mass changes.

Uplift rates from a new high-density GPS network in Palmer Land indicate significant late Holocene ice loss in the southwestern Weddell Sea (2015)
Journal Article
Wolstencroft, M., King, M., Whitehouse, P., Bentley, M., Nield, G., King, E., …Gunter, B. (2015). Uplift rates from a new high-density GPS network in Palmer Land indicate significant late Holocene ice loss in the southwestern Weddell Sea. Geophysical Journal International, 203(1), 737-754. https://doi.org/10.1093/gji/ggv327

The measurement of ongoing ice-mass loss and associated melt water contribution to sea-level change from regions such as West Antarctica is dependent on a combination of remote sensing methods. A key method, the measurement of changes in Earth's grav...
