How Water In Extreme Locations Helps To Control The Current Climate On Mars

Aug. 21, 2018

Brown , Adrian 1 1 NASA Ames The Martian poles are the most dynamic regions on the Red Planet, changing almost daily, and exchanging icy material between each pole as the surface warms or cools with the season. Two ices freeze and thaw as part of this cycle - CO2...

Supraglacial Lake Volumes On The Jakobshavn Isbrae

Aug. 21, 2018

Adler , John 1 1 CIRES In contrast to Antarctica, water runoff constitutes approximately half of Greenland's annual ice loss, with iceberg calving contributing the other 50%. In the Jakobshavn Isbrae region, the melt water from dozens of supraglacial lakes will ultimately flow into the ocean as runoff, which can...
