Abstract

Abstract Over the last two decades, anomalous warming events have been observed in coastal Antarctic regions. While these events have been documented in the Ross Sea sector, the Antarctic interior is believed to have been buffered from warming. In this work, we present data from lakes located near Mt. Heekin and Thanksgiving Valley (~85° S) along the Shackleton Glacier, which are believed to be the southern-most Antarctic dry valley lakes. In 2018, the lakes were characterized, repeat satellite images were examined, and lake water chemistry was measured. Our analysis shows that lake areas recently increased, and the water-soluble ion chemistry indicates a flushing of salts from periglacial soils, likely from increased glacial melt as illustrated by water isotope data. Our results show that high southern latitude ice-free areas have likely been affected by warm pulses over the past 60 years and these pulses may be quasi-synchronous throughout the Transantarctic Mountains.
南纬85度的变化:1960年至2020年沙克尔顿冰川地区原冰期湖泊
摘要近20年来,在南极沿海地区观测到异常变暖事件。虽然罗斯海地区记录了这些事件,但人们认为南极内陆地区没有受到变暖的影响。在这项工作中,我们提供了位于沙克尔顿冰川附近Heekin山和感恩节谷(~85°S)附近的湖泊的数据,这些湖泊被认为是南极最南端的干谷湖泊。2018年,对湖泊进行了表征,检查了重复卫星图像,并测量了湖泊的水化学。我们的分析表明,湖泊面积最近增加了,水溶性离子化学表明冰周土壤中的盐被冲走,正如水同位素数据所表明的那样,这可能是由于冰川融化的增加。我们的研究结果表明,在过去60年中,南纬高纬度无冰区可能受到温暖脉冲的影响,这些脉冲可能在整个横贯南极山脉是准同步的。

期刊介绍: Annals of Glaciology publishes original scientific articles and letters in selected aspects of glaciology-the study of ice. Each issue of the Annals is thematic, focussing on a specific subject. The Council of the International Glaciological Society welcomes proposals for thematic issues from the glaciological community. Once a theme is approved, the Council appoints an Associate Chief Editor and a team of Scientific Editors to handle the submission, peer review and publication of papers.
