    The recession of the inland ice margin during the Holocene climatic optimum in the Jakobshavn Isfjord area of West Greenland (1990)
    In:  EPIC3Palaeogeography, Palaeoclimatology, Palaeoecology, 82, pp. 389-399, ISSN: 0921-8181
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-17
    Description: Recent subsurface mapping of parts of Jakobshavn Isbrae region indicates that fjord system was more ice-free at 2700-4700 a BP than it is now, and that front of glacier was at least 15 km behind present position. The 14C datings of subfossils at present ice margin fit with climatic records from ice cores and confirm favourable conditions for Greenland's first settlers.

    Comparison between Greenland ice-margin and ice-core oxygen-18 records (2002)
    In:  EPIC3Annals of Glaciology, 35, pp. 136-144
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-17
    Description: Old ice for paleoenvironmental studies retrieved by deep core drilling in the central regions of the big ice sheets can also be retrieved from the ice-sheet margins. The d18O-content of the surface ice was studied at 15 different Greenland ice-margin locations. At some locations, two or more records were obtained along closely spaced parallel sampling profiles, showing good reproducibility of the records. We present ice-margin d18O- records reaching back into the Pleistocene. Many of the characteristic d18O-variations known from Greenland deep ice-cores can be recognized, allowing an approximate time scale to be established along the ice-margin records. A flow line model is used to determine the location on the ice sheet where the margin-ice was originally deposited as snow. The Pleistocene-Holocene d18O-change at the deposition sites is determined by comparing the d18O-values in the ice-margin record to the present _18O-values of the surface snow at the deposition sites. On the northern slope of the Greenland ice sheet, the Pleistocene-Holocene d18O-change is c. 10 per mil in contrast to a change of 6-7 per mil at locations near the central ice divide. This is in accordance with deep ice-core results.We conclude that d18O-records measured on ice from the Greenland ice-sheet margin provide useful information about past climate and dynamics of the ice sheet, and thus are important (and cheap) supplements to deep ice core records.

    Present and past climate control on fjord glaciations in Greenland: Implications for IRD deposition in the sea (1999)
    In:  EPIC3Geophysical Research Letters, 26, pp. 1039-1042
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-17
    Description: Calving of icebergs is the dominant ablation mechanism for large outlet glaciers from the Greenland ice sheet except in northernmost Greenland where bottom melting from floating glaciers dominates. This difference is controlled by present climate conditions. Glacial geological evidence indicates that the transition between the associated types of fjord glaciations moved north-south in response to past climate change. In cold periods, local melt-out of debris from the bottom of an increasing number of floating glaciers reduces the potential for iceberg transport of IRD. Thus, the marine IRD signal of Greenland origin is not a simple cold climate signal. Our findings are discussed in the context of the ongoing debate about the kind of ice transporting IRD.

    Tidal movement of Nioghalvfjerdsfjorden glacier, northeast Greenland: observations and modelling (2000)
    In:  EPIC3Annals of Glaciology, 31, pp. 111-117
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-17
    Description: Nioghalvfjerdsfjorden glacier is a 〉60 km long and 20 km wide floating outlet glacier located at 79°30'N, 22° W, draining a large area of the northeast Greenland ice sheet. Climate, mass-balance and dynamics studies were carried out on the glacier in three field seasons in 1996, 1997 and 1998. As part of this work, tidal-movement observations were carried out by simultaneous differential global positioning system (GPS) measurements at several locations distributed on the glacier surface. The GPS observations were performed continously over several tidal cycles. At the same time, tiltmeter measurements were carried out in the grounding zones along the glaciers margins and upstream, where the glacier leaves the main ice sheet. A tide gauge installed in the sea immediately in front of the glacier front recorded the tide in the open sea during the field seasons. The observations show that the main part of the glacier tongue responds as a freely floating plate to the phase and amplitude of the local tide in the sea. However, kilometre-wide flexure zones exist along the marginal and upstream grounding lines. Attempts to model the observed tidal defectionand tilt patterns in the flexure zone by elastic-beam theory are unsuccessful, in contrast to previous findings by other investigators. The strongest disagreement between our measurements and results derived from elastic-beam theory is a significant variation of the phase of the tidal records with distance from the grounding line (most clearly displayed by the tilt records). We suggest that the viscous properties of glacier ice must be taken into account, and consequently that a viscoelastic-beam model must be used to adequately describe tidal bending of floating glaciers.

    Mining cosmic dust from the blue ice lakes of Greenland (1985)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2016-06-07
    Description: Extraterrestrial material, most of which invisible settles to Earth's surface as dust particles smaller than a millimeter in size were investigated. Particles of 1/10 millimeter size fall at a rate of one/sq m/yr collection of extraterrestrial dust is important because the recovered cosmic dust particles can provide important information about comets. Comets are the most important source of dust in the solar system and they are probably the major source of extraterrestrial dust that is collectable at the Earth's surface. A new collection site for cosmic dust, in an environment where degradation by weathering is minimal is reported. It is found that the blue ice lakes on the Greenland ice cap provide an ideal location for collection of extraterrestrial dust particles larger than 0.1 mm in size. It is found that the lakes contain large amounts of cosmic dust which is much better preserved than similar particles recovered from the ocean floor.

    Placers of cosmic dust in the blue ice lakes of Greenland (1986)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-12
    Description: A concentration process occurring in the melt zone of the Greenland ice cap has produced the richest known deposit of cosmic dust on the surface of the earth. Extraterrestrial particles collected from this region are well preserved and are collectable in large quantities. The collected particles are generally identical to cosmic spheres found on the ocean floor, but a pure glass type was discovered that has not been seen in deep-sea samples. Iron-rich spheres are conspicuously rare in the collected material.
