Quaternary glaciation history and glaciology of Jakobshavn Isbrae and the Disko Bugt region, West Greenland: a review / Anker Weidick, Ole Bennike.
Title: | Quaternary glaciation history and glaciology of Jakobshavn Isbrae and the Disko Bugt region, West Greenland: a review / Anker Weidick, Ole Bennike. |
Author(s): | Weidick, Anker. Bennike, Ole. |
Date: | 2007. |
In: | Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland Bulletin. (2007.), Vol. 14 (2007) |
Abstract: | Describes glaciation history of Disko Bugt, region characterised by permanent ice streams. Notes cooling during Cenozoic leading to ice-sheet growth in Greenland, rapid deglaciation of Disko Bugt in early Holocene (10.5-10.0 ka B.P.) and formation of moraine systems, subsequent Neoglacial readvance reaching maximum in Little Ice Age (1850 AD), and recession continuing to present day. Describes Jakobshavn Isbrae, main outlet from Greenland ice sheet, draining 6.5% of present inland ice, and producing c. 35-50 km³ of icebergs per year, correspondcing to more than 10% of total iceberg output from inland ice. |
