  1. 1. Multi-method based characterization of calving events at Sálajiegna Glacier - Lake Sulitelma, Northern Sweden

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi

    Author : Martin Schulthess; [2021]
    Keywords : Glaciology; Glacier; Glaciers; Calving; calving front; detection algorithm; Acoustic; Acoustics; Photogrammetry; ice-ocean interactions; UAV; drone; time-lapse; Salajiegna;

    Abstract : Sea level rise concerns millions of people in coastal areas across the globe. One of the largest uncertainties to project future sea level rise is the frontal ablation (accounting for calving and submarine melt) at marine ice margins, around the Greenland and Antarctic Ice Sheet.

    Keywords : Calving; calving model; self-organized criticality; glacier dynamics; Tunabreen; Kalvning; kalvningsmodell; self-organized criticality; glaciärdynamik; Tunabreen;

    Abstract : Mass balance processes in glaciers are important for determining the growth or retreat of ice. Calving, the mechanical breakage of ice bergs from a glacier front, is a poorly understood phenomenon. This process has great importance to the mass balance of many glaciers, for example on Antarctica and in the Arctic. A recent paper by Åström et al. READ MORE

  4. 3. Calving front dynamics : External forces that lead to specific sized calving events

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Daniel Wainwright; [2014]
    Keywords : Greenland; calving; climate; photography; glacier; tidewater;

    Abstract : Currently there is no extended study that explicitly focuses on themagnitude, frequency and timing of glacial calving resulting from externalforces. Past studies have identified the size and timing of calving events butthe links between them and the external factors that cause them are stillmissing. READ MORE

    Author : Joakim Frank; [2007]
    Keywords : höstkalvning; systemlösningar; köttdjursuppfödning; kalvar; slaktdjur;

    Abstract : Att använda sig av höstkalvning innebär att man ska lämna sina slaktdjur i den period under året som det är högst betalt och störst efterfrågan. Att använda ett stall till just dikor är kanske inte det man tjänar mest pengar på. READ MORE
