Workshop advances interdisciplinary polar science and fast ice sheet drilling

Fostering advances in interdisciplinary climate science.

Ice Sheet Modelling and Applications to Greenland, Antarctica and the Martian Polar Ice Caps

Ice sheets, ice shelves, ice caps and glaciers are active, dynamic components of the climate system of the Earth, and they deserve the same scientific attention as the atmosphere and the oceans. Since the late 1970s, numerical modelling has become established as an important technique for the understanding of ice dynamics. Ice sheet models are particularly relevant for predicting their possible...

Perspectives on Open Science and scientific data sharing:an interdisciplinary workshop.

Looking at Open Science and Open Data from a broad perspective. This is the idea behind "Scientific data sharing: an interdisciplinary workshop", an initiative designed to foster dialogue between scholars from different scientific domains which was organized by the Istituto Italiano di Antropologia in Anagni, Italy, 2-4 September 2013.We here report summaries of the presentations and discussion...

Ice-sheet surging and ice-strealll forlllation

A simplified model of ice-sheet behayiour is described. I t combines the assumptions of rapid ice flow, high viscous actiyation energy and realistic sediment-based sliding dynamics to form a non-linear diffusion-type equation which can display relaxation oscillations analogous to those of surging glaciers, and which may be relevant to large-scale surges of the Hudson Strait and Cabot Strait ice...
