Be-10 Dating of Ice-Marginal Moraines in the Khumbu Valley, Nepal, Central Himalaya, Reveals the Response of Monsoon-Influenced Glaciers to Holocene Climate Change
Hornsey, Josephine; Rowan, Ann Victoria; Kirkbride, Martin P.; Livingstone, Stephen J.; Fabel, Derek; Rodes, Angel; Quincey, Duncan J.; Hubbard, Bryn; Jomelli, Vincent (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)The dynamic response of large mountain glaciers to climatic forcing operates over timescales of several centuries and therefore understanding how these glaciers change requires observations of their behavior through the ... -
Internal structure of a Himalayan debris-covered glacier revealed by borehole optical televiewing
Miles, Katie E.; Hubbard, Bryn; Miles, Evan S.; Quincey, Duncan J.; Rowan, Ann Victoria (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Characterising the structures within glaciers can give unique insight into ice motion processes. On debris-covered glaciers, traditional structural glaciological mapping is challenging because the lower glacier is hidden ... -
Provenance and transport of supraglacial debris revealed by variations in debris geochemistry on Khumbu Glacier, Nepal Himalaya
Kirkbride, Martin P.; Sherriff, Sophie C.; Rowan, Ann Victoria; Egholm, David L.; Quincey, Duncan J.; Miles, Evan; Hubbard, Bryn; Miles, Katie (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)The origin of supraglacial debris covers is often conceptualised as the formation of a surface lag by melt-out of englacial debris from slow-moving ice, where complexity arises from feedback between debris thickness and ...
