Mass Balance and Velocity Data for Greenland Ice Sheet at High Elevations

17 Sep 2021 | *Data Sets/Collections | Contributor(s): Beata Maria Csatho, Ash Narkevic, Ivan Parmuzin

This is an estimation of mass balance of the Greenland Ice Sheet at higher elevations, computed as the difference between the estimated annual total snow accumulation and ice discharge. Measurements are taken at 161 stations located 30 km apart, at 2000 m elevation that circumnavigates Greenland....

Regression on Ice: Function approximation for the mathematically-inclined glaciologist

17 Sep 2023 | Educational Materials | Contributor(s): Noah J Bergam

Modern satellite-based analysis of the ice sheets presents a profound statistical-geometric problem: how do we make sense of scattered, noisy measurements of vast, steadily evolving surfaces like the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets? In these lecture notes, I attempt to provide the...

15 May 2024 | Presentations | Contributor(s): Homayra Alam, Katherine Yi, Angelina Dewar, Tartela Tabassum, Jason Lu, Ray Chen, Omar Faruque, Sikan Li, Mathieu Morlighem

Abstract:The purpose of this research is to study how different machine learning and statistical models can be used to predict bedrock topography under the Greenland ice sheet using ice-penetrating radar and satellite imagery data. Accurate bed topography representations are crucial for...

Spread sheet to calculate tephra volume for exponential thinning

10 Apr 2015 | Offline Tools | Contributor(s): Manuel Nathenson, Judy Fierstein

An Excel spread sheet and instructions are provided to calculate tephra volume for exponential thinning on a log(thickness) versus square root of area plot. The spread sheet calculates volumes for a single straight line and for two straight lines. The equations for the calculations are from...

Tephra 2014 - Maximizing the potential of tephra for multidisciplinary science

09 Jan 2014 | Workshops | Contributor(s): Steven Kuehn, Solene Pouget, Marcus I Bursik

Tephra deposits are used by diverse communities: volcanologists, petrologists, tephrochronologists, paleoclimatologists, paleoecologists and archaeologists. To perhaps be too reductionist, volcanologists are generally interested in tephra to understand eruption behavior, frequency, and hazards;...
