    • Physical Conditions of Fast Glacier Flow: 1. Measurements From Boreholes Drilled to the Bed of Store Glacier, West Greenland 

      Doyle, S. H.; Hubbard, B.; Christoffersen, P.; Young, T.J.; Hofstede, C; Bougamont, M.; Box, J.E.; Hubbard, A.L. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-01-21)
      Marine‐terminating outlet glaciers of the Greenland Ice Sheet make significant contributions to global sea level rise, yet the conditions that facilitate their fast flow remain poorly constrained owing to a paucity of data. We drilled and instrumented seven boreholes on Store Glacier, Greenland, to monitor subglacial water pressure, temperature, electrical conductivity, and turbidity along with ...

    • Physical Conditions of Fast Glacier Flow: 2. Variable Extent of Anisotropic Ice and Soft Basal Sediment From Seismic Reflection Data Acquired on Store Glacier, West Greenland 

      Hofstede, C.; Christoffersen, P.; Hubbard, B.; Doyle, S.H.; Young, T.J.; Diez, A.; Eisen, O.; Hubbard, Alun Lloyd (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-01-09)
      Outlet glaciers of the Greenland Ice Sheet transport ice from the interior to the ocean and contribute directly to sea level rise because discharge and ablation often exceed the accumulation. To develop a better understanding of these fast‐flowing glaciers, we investigate the basal conditions of Store Glacier, a large outlet glacier flowing into Uummannaq Fjord in west Greenland. We use two crossing ...

    • Surface Meltwater Impounded by Seasonal Englacial Storage in West Greenland 

      Kendrick, A.K.; Schroeder, D.M.; Chu, W.; Young, T.J.; Christoffersen, P.; Todd, J.; Doyle, S.H.; Box, J.E.; Hubbard, A.; Hubbard, B.; Brennan, P.V.; Nicholls, K. W.; Lok, L.B. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-09-24)
      The delivery of surface meltwater through englacial drainage systems to the bed of the Greenland Ice Sheet modulates ice flow through basal lubrication. Recent studies in Southeast Greenland have identified a perennial firn aquifer; however, there are few observations quantifying the input or residence time of water within the englacial system and it remains unknown whether water can be stored within ...
