WINTER 2017 Vision a Floppy-Eared Smiley Face Greets the Sunrise on Picnic Point on a December Morning in 2016 FOR UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN–MADISON ALUMNI AND FRIENDS WINTER 2017 Vision A floppy-eared smiley face greets the sunrise on Picnic Point on a December morning in 2016. UW students need to keep a sense of fun in the cold: since 2000, Lake Mendota has been iced over for an average of 85 days out of the year.

  • Wisconsin Topic Ideas for National History Day Research
    Wisconsin Topic Ideas for National History Day Research General Topic Ideas for Students Interested in Exploring the History of Our State National History Day in Wisconsin Updated: Summer 2010 1 A Warning for All Researchers! What follows is a very GENERAL list of topic ideas for you to consider. This list is by no means complete or exhaustive of Wisconsin history. There are many, many more fantastic topics to consider! These topics are NOT THEME SPECIFIC. You will need to take a closer look at each potential topic and consider how it fits with the annual theme for NHD. This is a general list. All the topics listed in this book WILL NOT fit the annual theme. Selecting a topic from this list does not guarantee a WINNING PROJECT. Selecting a topic is just the first step. You will need to follow through with good research, a strong argument, and a clear presentation. Selecting a topic from this list isn’t the final step. Many of these topics need to be further NARROWED in order for them to be a suitable National History Day project. Why Choose a Wisconsin Topic? The National History Day program doesn’t have any requirements or give you any advantage in choosing a Wisconsin topic. Wisconsin history, however, is full of great ideas for your History Day project. It is easy to overlook the history right around us, but your National History Day project can help you to find these amazing local stories that helped shape your history! Armed with local resources and strong research, you can become an authority on your topic and your project could be more competitive than a topic that many other students across the state or nation could choose.

Brief Communication: Heterogenous thinning and subglacial lake activity on Thwaites Glacier, West Antarctica Andrew O. Hoffman1, Knut Christianson1, Daniel Shapero2, Benjamin E. Smith2, Ian Joughin2 1Department of Earth and Space Sciences, University of Washington, Seattle, 98115, United States of America 5 2Applied Physics Laboratory, University of Washington, 98115, United States of America Correspondence to: Andrew O. Hoffman ([email protected]) Abstract. A system of subglacial laKes drained on Thwaites Glacier from 2012-2014. To improve coverage for subsequent drainage events, we extended the elevation and ice velocity time series on Thwaites Glacier through austral winter 2019. These new observations document a second drainage cycle and identified two new laKe systems located in the western tributaries of 10 Thwaites and Haynes Glaciers. In situ and satellite velocity observations show temporary < 3% speed fluctuations associated with laKe drainages. In agreement with previous studies, these observations suggest that active subglacial hydrology has little influence on Thwaites Glacier thinning and retreat on decadal to centennial timescales. 1 Introduction Although subglacial laKes beneath the Antarctic Ice Sheet were first discovered more than 50 years ago (Robin et al., 1969; 15 Oswald and Robin, 1973), they remain one of the most enigmatic components of the subglacial hydrology system. Initially identified in ice-penetrating radar data as flat, bright specular reflectors (Oswald and Robin, 1973; Carter et al., 2007) subglacial laKes were thought to be relatively steady-state features of the basal hydrology system with little impact on the dynamics of the overlying ice on multi-year timescales.

LICHT, ANDREA J. HENNESSY and BETHANY M. WELKE Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis, Department of Earth Sciences, 723 West Michigan Street, Indianapolis, IN 46202, USA [email protected] Abstract: Glacial till samples collected from beneath the Bindschadler and Kamb ice streams have a distinct U-Pb detrital zircon signature that allows them to be identified in Ross Sea tills. These two sites contain a population of Cretaceous grains 100–110 Ma that have not been found in East Antarctic tills. Additionally, Bindschadler and Kamb ice streams have an abundance of Ordovician grains (450–475 Ma) and a cluster of ages 330–370 Ma, which are much less common in the remainder of the sample set. These tracers of a West Antarctic provenance are also found east of 180° longitude in eastern Ross Sea tills deposited during the last glacial maximum (LGM). Whillans Ice Stream (WIS), considered part of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet but partially originating in East Antarctica, lacks these distinctive signatures. Its U-Pb zircon age population is dominated by grains 500–550 Ma indicating derivation from Granite Harbour Intrusive rocks common along the Transantarctic Mountains, making it indistinguishable from East Antarctic tills.

Luyendyk Department of Geological Sciences and Institute for Crustal Studies, University of California, Santa Barbara, California 93106, USA ([email protected]) Douglas S.

Siddoway Department of Geology, Colorado College, Colorado Springs, Colorado 80903, USA [1] The basement rock and structures of the Ross Sea rift are exposed in coastal western Marie Byrd Land (wMBL), West Antarctica. Thinned, extended continental crust forms wMBL and the eastern Ross Sea continental shelf, where faults control the regional basin-and range-type topography at 20 km spacing. Onshore in the Ford Ranges and Rockefeller Mountains of wMBL, basement rocks consist of Early Paleozoic metagreywacke and migmatized equivalents, intruded by Devonian-Carboniferous and Cretaceous granitoids. Marine geophysical profiles suggest that these geological formations continue offshore to the west beneath the eastern Ross Sea, and are covered by glacial and glacial marine sediments. Airborne gravity and radar soundings over wMBL indicate a thicker crust and smoother basement inland to the north and east of the northern Ford Ranges. A migmatite complex near this transition, exhumed from mid crustal depths between 100–94 Ma, suggests a profound crustal discontinuity near the inboard limit of extended crust, 300 km northeast of the eastern Ross Sea margin.
