Evidence for the Drainage of a Superglacial Lake as the Source of Seismic Waves Recorded at a Regional Distance
… during the summer leads to the formation of lakes on the Greenland Ice Sheet surface, known as supraglacial lakes. Some of these lakes drain through cracks in their beds and release the water into the ice sheet. Previous studies suggest that some of the water reaches the bedrock, enabling …

Marine-terminating outlet glacier response to hydrological mechanisms: A comparative study at Store Glestcher and Rink Isbrae, Uummannaq Bay, West Greenland
… of hydrological processes via surface runoff and supraglacial lake drainage. There has been increasing evidence for the influence of enhanced meltwater inputs on impacting short term velocity at marine-terminating outlet glaciers with contrasting responses at individual glaciers. This study uses a …

UAV-based investigations into the hydrology and dynamics of the Greenland Ice Sheet
… the causes and dynamic influence of a rapid supraglacial lake drainage. I show that rapid drainage can induce a significant dynamic response up to 4 km away from the lake itself, and that fracture history can exert controls on interannual lake drainage behaviour. Finally, I upscale UAV ob- …
