Insights From Managed Retreat Projects in Europe

C. Wolff; F. Bade; C. M. Kraan2026

Earth's Future

Online resource

DOI
10.1029/2025ef007012
Abstract

Abstract Managed retreat, the purposeful relocation of households and assets to reduce flood risk, is gaining recognition as an essential adaptation strategy under intensifying climate change.

Interplay of grounding-line dynamics and sub-shelf melting during retreat of the Bjørnøyrenna Ice Stream

Michele Petrini; Florence Colleoni; Nina Kirchner; Anna L. C. Hughes; Angelo Camerlenghi; Michele Rebesco; Renata G. Lucchi; Emanuele Forte; Renato R. Colucci; Riko Noormets2018

Scientific Reports

Online resource

DOI
10.1038/s41598-018-25664-6
Abstract

The Bjørnøyrenna Ice Stream was the largest ice stream draining the Barents Sea Ice Sheet and is regarded as an analogue for contemporary ice streams in West Antarctica. Here, the retreat of the Bjørnøyrenna Ice Stream is simulated by means of two numerical ice sheet models and results assessed against geological data.

Managing retreat for sandy beach areas under sea level rise

Renee O. Setter; Rachael X. Han; Kammie-Dominique Tavares; Conrad Newfield; Alice Terry; Isabella M. Roberson; Nori Tarui; Makena Coffman2023

Scientific Reports

Online resource

DOI
10.1038/s41598-023-38939-4
Abstract

Abstract Sea level rise (SLR) is projected to impact approximately one billion people by 2100. For many coastal communities, retreat is the most viable long-term option due to exposure risk under SLR and increased coastal hazards.

Can shrubs help to reconstruct historical glacier retreats?

Allan Buras; Martin Hallinger; Martin Wilmking2012

Environmental Research Letters

Online resource

DOI
10.1088/1748-9326/7/4/044031
Abstract

In the 21st century, most of the world’s glaciers are expected to retreat due to further global warming. The range of this predicted retreat varies widely as a result of uncertainties in climate and glacier models.

The EU's role in world politics : a retreat from liberal internationalism

Richard Youngs2026

University of Warwick

Online resource

Abstract

Youngs argues that the challenges facing Europe’s role in the world appear to be in its retreat from liberal internationalism through a series of case studies on policy areas: trade, multilateral diplomacy, security, development cooperation, democracy and human rights, and energy security.

Engineering modelling of the progressive retreat of cliffs

Chrysoula Voulgari2026

University of Warwick

Online resource

Abstract

The research is conducted in two parts; the analytical part (employing the limit analysis upper bound method) and the experimental (by small scale model tests). An experimental prototype model to study the influence of water infiltration on the morphologic evolution of natural cliffs subject to progressive retreat is presented.

Widespread and accelerating glacier retreat on the Lyngen Peninsula, northern Norway, since their ‘Little Ice Age’ maximum

CHRIS R. STOKES; LISS M. ANDREASSEN; MATTHEW R. CHAMPION; GEOFFREY D. CORNER2018

Journal of Glaciology

Online resource

DOI
10.1017/jog.2018.3
Abstract

The recession of mountain glaciers worldwide is increasing global sea level and, in many regions, human activities will have to adapt to changes in surface hydrology. Thus, it is important to provide up-to-date analyses of glacier change and the factors modulating their response to climate warming.
