HOW IT WORKS I CE Ice, of course, is simply frozen water, and though it might appear to be a simple subject, it is not. Glaciologists classify differing types of ice, for instance, with regard to their levels of density, designating them with Roman numerals. The ice to which most of us are accustomed is classified as ice I. We will not be concerned with the other varieties of ice in the present context, but it should be noted that the ice in glaciers is quite different from the ice in an ice cube or even the ice on a pond in winter. These differences are a result of massive pressure, which reduces the air content of the ice in glaciers.

Examination of such cores, obtained at depths of up to 1000 feet, revealed much concerning the past climate, vegetation, amount of snowfall, and other features of the region. Auger set consisting of the auger, extensions, connecting pins and Harley pins, a brace and adapter, and a guide.

    Climate Change
    More on glaciers Pt 1- Intro to glaciology
    glaciers Ice Shelves are thick forms of ice that are connected to the land and float on ocean. They lose mass through iceberg calving and melting, and gain mass from glacial and ice sheet flow. Ice shelves respond very rapidly to climate changes. Permafrost is soil that is permanently covered in ice over many years. Nearly one fifth of the land surface on Earth is covered by permafrost. It can be found as far north into the Arctic as around 86 N, and as far south in the northern hemisphere as 26 N, around the Himalayas. The good majority of NH permafrost is covered by evergreen boreal forest and acts as a carbon source and sink. Ice and Climate Sea levels are directly related to ice sheet/glacier conditions. If both ice sheets completely melted, sea levels would rise roughly 70m (or over 200 feet). Sea ice melt does not directly contribute to sea level rise, but it can affect ocean circulation patterns, as well as its influence on albedo (i.e., albedo declines with increased solar absorption).

            Glaciology: Lubricating lakes
            Jack Kohler Top of page
            Abstract
            More than 150 subglacial lakes have been discovered beneath the Antarctic ice sheet. The four most recent additions, found right at the start of fast flow in a large ice stream, suggest that the lakes influence ice dynamics. Antarctica is well known as the coldest place on Earth, but it is also surprisingly wet. Whereas the upper part of the ice is cold, geothermal heat and the insulating effect of the overlying ice combine towards its base to bring extensive areas of ice at the bed to its melting point.

    Antarctica Geology
    Most visitors to Antarctica glimpse only fragments of the actual continent. Antarctica is 98% covered with ice and it is sometimes difficult to remember that there is rock lying below the tons of ancient frozen water. However, scientists have managed to study the continent and have drawn some interesting observations and conclusions about this land covered with ice. Antarctica is the The rocks of East Antarctica are among the oldest found on the planet. Many of the rocks found here are at least 3 billion years old. The oldest rock discovered on Earth came from Enderby Land in 1986 and is estimated to be 3.86 billion years old. In contrast, the rocks on Western Antarctica are relatively new: 700 million years old on average.

        SALE, Glaciology, and Ice Sheet Interactions: Hydro(geo)logy of a Glaciated Continent
        by CKennicutt last modified Slawek Tulaczyk, Department of Earth Sciences, University of California, Santa Cruz At the present time, understanding of subglacial hydro(geo)logy in Antarctica is, at best, rudimentary. We can put only loose quantitative constraints on sources and sinks of water on this glaciated continent. The topology, geometry, and efficiency of subglacial drainage networks in Antarctica have been explored mostly through theoretical models. In fact, we know more about drainage channels on Mars and Titan than about liquid water flow features in Antarctica. Identification and exploration of subglacial lakes represents an important step in building rigorous understanding of hyro(geo)logy of Antarctica. International collaboration within the framework of the SALE initiative will be an important component of this scientifically and logistically challenging task.

Reconstructions of past ice sheets have either been qualitative reconstructions of their extent, flow history and thermal regime based on glacial geological evidence or reconstructions based on the inversion or partial inversion of relative sea level data using simple numerical models of ice sheets as parts of coupled lithosphere models. The former fail to utilise the capacity of models to represent modern glaciological understanding and to create internally consistent ice sheets that are compatible with geological constraints. The latter fail to use glacial geological data that has the potential to provide strong constraints on models. A high resolution, thermo-mechanical 3D numerical ice sheet model has been used to simulate the European ice sheet through the whole of the last glacial cycle. Its advantage is a high resolution that permits model results to be compared with glacial geological and geophysical data close to the scale at which they are observed. It is ultimately intended to use the model in inversions of geological and geophysical data to create a quantitative numerical glaciological reconstruction of ice sheet behaviour in space and time. As an intermediate step, a series of forward simulations have been undertaken through the last glacial cycle in which the ice sheet is driven by a climate function based on the Greenland ice core record and parameterisation of local climate, and steered so that its output is compatible with glacial geological evidence of ice margin fluctuation, flow patterns and thermal regimes.
