• Atmosphere-Snow Exchange Explains Surface Snow Isotope Variability 

      Wahl, Sonja; Steen-Larsen, Hans Christian; Hughes, A.G.; Dietrich, Laura Jasmin; Zuhr, A.; Behrens, M.; Faber, Anne-Katrine; Hörhold, M. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)
      The climate signal imprinted in the snow isotopic composition allows to infer past climate variability from ice core stable water isotope records. The concurrent evolution of vapor and surface snow isotopic composition ...
    • The Determination of the Snow Optical Grain Diameter and Snowmelt Area on the Greenland Ice Sheet Using Spaceborne Optical Observations 

      Vandecrux, Baptiste; Box, Jason E.; Wehrlé, Adrien; Kokhanovsky, Alexander A.; Picard, Ghislain; Niwano, Masashi; Hörhold, Maria; Faber, Anne-Katrine; Steen-Larsen, Hans Christian (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)
      The optical diameter of the surface snow grains impacts the amount of energy absorbed by the surface and therefore the onset and magnitude of surface melt. Snow grains respond to surface heating through grain metamorphism ...
    • Evidence of Isotopic Fractionation During Vapor Exchange Between the Atmosphere and the Snow Surface in Greenland 

      Madsen, M.V.; Steen‐Larsen, H.C.; Hörhold, M.; Box, J.; Berben, Sarah Miche Patricia; Capron, E.; Faber, Anne-Katrine; Hubbard, Alun Lloyd; Jensen, Mari Fjalstad; Jones, T.R.; Kipfstuhl, S.; Koldtoft, I.; Pillar, H.R.; Vaughn, B.H.; Vladimirova, D.; Dahl‐Jensen, D. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-03)
      Several recent studies from both Greenland and Antarctica have reported significant changes in the water isotopic composition of near‐surface snow between precipitation events. These changes have been linked to isotopic ...
    • Exploring the role of snow metamorphism on the isotopic composition of the surface snow at EastGRIP 

      Harris Stuart, Romilly; Faber, Anne-Katrine; Wahl, Sonja; Hörhold, Maria; Kipfstuhl, Sepp; Vasskog, Kristian; Behrens, Melanie; Zuhr, Alexandra M.; Steen-Larsen, Hans Christian (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)
      Stable water isotopes from polar ice cores are invaluable high-resolution climate proxy records. Recent studies have aimed to improve our understanding of how the climate signal is stored in the stable water isotope record ...
    • Retrieval of snow properties from the Sentinel-3 Ocean and Land Colour Instrument 

      Kokhanovsky, Alexander; Lamare, Maxim; Danne, Olaf; Brockmann, Carsten; Dumont, Marie; Picard, Ghislain; Arnaud, Laurent; Favier, Vincent; Jourdain, Bruno; Le Meur, Emmanuel; Di Mauro, Biagio; Aoki, Teruo; Niwano, Masashi; Rozanov, Vladimir; Korkin, Sergey; Kipfstuhl, Sepp; Freitag, Johannes; Hoerhold, Maria; Zuhr, Alexandra; Vladimirova, Diana; Faber, Anne-Katrine; Steen-Larsen, Hans Christian; Wahl, Sonja; Andersen, Jonas K.; Vandecrux, Baptiste; van As, Dirk; Mankoff, Kenneth D.; Kern, Michael; Zege, Eleonora; Box, Jason E. (Journal article, 2019)
      The Sentinel Application Platform (SNAP) architecture facilitates Earth Observation data processing. In this work, we present results from a new Snow Processor for SNAP. We also describe physical principles behind the ...
    • An unmanned aerial vehicle sampling platform for atmospheric water vapor isotopes in polar environments 

      Rozmiarek, Kevin S.; Vaughn, Bruce H.; Jones, Tyler R.; Morris, Valerie; Skorski, William B.; Hughes, Abigail G.; Elston, Jack; Wahl, Sonja; Faber, Anne-Katrine; Steen-Larsen, Hans Christian (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)
      Above polar ice sheets, atmospheric water vapor exchange occurs across the planetary boundary layer (PBL) and is an important mechanism in a number of processes that affect the surface mass balance of the ice sheets. Yet, ...
