A slight increase in IO is observed in spring, although it is a factor of 10 lower than the Weddell Sea region. We identify the variations in drivers in the different regions using sea ice concentrations, sea ice thickness and chlorophyll concentrations. We use a global model which uses a parameterization for iodine emissions based on a combination of these factors. The model reproduces the high concentrations over the Weddell Sea and the low concentrations over Bharati throughout the year, shedding light on the environmental factors, sources and chemistry of iodine in Antarctica. Even at small concentrations, iodine can enhance ozone loss caused by bromine chemistry over east Antarctica, although this impact is lower than in the west Antarctic.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":20316,"journal":{"name":"Polar Science","volume":"40 ","pages":"Article 101014"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135515642","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study reviewed all the studies done in the past which are done on the Kashmir Himalayas and UIB glaciers by different methods. The geodetic and glaciological methods suggested that the glaciers in the Kashmir Himalayas and UIB are having a negative glacial mass balance and are losing ice mass at higher rates during the last two decades and are losing glacial area every year. And the glaciers in the Zanskar range are also having negative mass balance but are losing less ice mass as compared to the Glaciers in Kashmir Himalayas, while the glaciers in the Karakorum range are having positive mass balance and are losing glacial area at slower rates. Studies have found that higher surface velocities are observed in the glaciers which are present in the Kashmir region and indicate rapid melting because of higher temperatures recorded in this part of the world because of global warming. This review reflects an increasing understanding that how much of the water reservoirs we have lost and in which era we are heading to.","PeriodicalId":20316,"journal":{"name":"Polar Science","volume":"163 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-04-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141059897","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

An effective approach to investigating subglacial characteristics is through bedrock drilling, making the identification of a suitable drilling site a crucial prerequisite. In this study, data from airborne ice-penetrating radar and an Uncrewed Aerial Vehicle (UAV) remote sensing were used in combination to obtain real-time and high-resolution information about the surface, ice thickness, and subglacial conditions in a local area near Zhongshan Station, and further to identify a drilling site that is both safe and optimal for the successful acquisition of bedrock samples beneath the East Antarctic Ice Sheet. By analyzing the airborne ice-penetrating radar data from the 35th Chinese National Antarctic Research Expedition (CHINARE) (2018–2019), a potential drilling site was selected based on ice thickness (≤200 m) and a dry basal condition with no channels or basal crevasses, to avoid drilling fluid leakage. UAV data confirmed stable surface topography, ice flow, and the absence of surface crevasses. The optimal site was identified as located close to the western flank of the upstream part of the Dålk Glacier. In 2019, CHINARE successfully retrieved a valuable bedrock core sample from the borehole at this location. This study provides a feasible and effective methodology for locating a bedrock drilling site by using data from airborne ice-penetrating radar and UAV remote sensing.","PeriodicalId":20316,"journal":{"name":"Polar Science","volume":"31 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-04-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141059896","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
