This study of university students (136 men and 307 women) examined the roles of hassles, avoidant and active coping, and perceived available social support in the relation between evaluative concerns and personal standards perfectionism and distress symptoms (i.e., depression, anxiety). Confirmatory factor analysis supported the measurement model used in this study. Structural equation modeling results indicated that hassles, avoidant coping, and perceived social support are each unique mediators that can fully explain the strong relation between evaluative concerns perfectionism and distress. Personal standards perfectionism had a unique association with active coping only. Hassles and social support also moderated the relation between both dimensions of perfectionism and distress. Clinical implications of distinguishing between evaluative concerns and personal standards perfectionism are discussed.

[ 1 ] The 5,575-km 2 Acad emy of Sciences Ice Cap is the largest in the Russia n Arctic. A 100-M Hz airbo rne radar, digital Landsat imagery, and satelli te syntheti c apertu re radar (SAR) interfero metry are used to investig ate its form and flow, incl uding the propor tion of mass lost throu gh iceberg calvi ng. The ice cap was covered by a 10-km -space d grid of radar fli ght paths , and the centr al porti on was covered by a grid at 5-km inte rvals: a total of 1,657 km of radar data. Digit al elevation model s (DEM s) of ice surfa ce elevation, ice thickness, and bed elevat ion data sets wer e produce d (cell size 500 m). The DEMs wer e used in the selec tion o f a deep ice core dril l site. To tal ice cap volum e is 2,1 84 km 3 ( $ 5.5 mm sea level equiva lent). The ice cap has a single dome reachi ng 749 m. Maxi mum ice thic kness is 819 m. About 200 km, or 42%, of the ice margin is mari ne. About 50% of the ice cap bed is below sea level. The central divide of the ice cap and severa l maj or drain age basins, in the south an d east of the ice cap and of up to 975 km 2 , are delimited from satel lite ima gery. The re is no eviden ce of past surge ac tivity on the ice cap. SAR interfero metric frin ges and phase-unwrapped velociti es for the whole ice cap indicate slow flow in the interior and much of the margin, punctu ated by four fast flowin g featu res with late ral shear zones and maxi mum veloci ty of 140 m y r À 1 . These ice streams extend back into the slower moving ice to wi thin 5 -10 km of the ice cap crest. They have lengths of 17 -37 km a nd widths of 4 -8 km. Mass flux from these ice streams is $ 0.54 km 3 yr À 1 . Tabular icebergs up to $ 1.7 km long are produce d. Total iceberg flux from the ice cap is $ 0.65 km 3 yr À 1 and probably represe nts $ 40% of the overal l mass loss , with the rema inder coming from surfa ce mel ting. Drivin g stre sses are general ly low est (<40 kP a) close to the ice cap divides and in severa l of the ice stre ams. Ice stream motion is likely to incl ude a signifi cant basal compo nent and may involve deformabl e marine sedim ents.

ABSTRACT. Jö kulhlaups in 2007 and 2008 from an ice-dammed lake at the northern margin of Russell Glacier, West Greenland, marked the onset of a renewed jö kulhlaup cycle after 20 years of stability. We present a record of successive ice-dammed lake drainage events and associated ice-margin dynamics spanning $25 years. Robust calculations of lake volumes and peak discharges are made, based on intensive field surveys and utilizing high-spatial-resolution orthophotographs of the lake basin and ice margin. These data enable identification of controls on the behaviour of the ice-dammed lake and provide the first field-based examination of controls on jö kulhlaup magnitude and frequency for this system. We find that Russell Glacier jö kulhlaups have a much higher peak discharge than predicted by the Clague-Mathews relationship, which we attribute to an unusually short englacial/subglacial routeway and the presence of a thin ice dam that permits incomplete sealing of jö kulhlaup conduits between lake drainage events. Additionally, we demonstrate that the passage of jökulhlaups through an interlinked system of proglacial bedrock basins produces significant attenuation of peak discharge downstream. We highlight that improved understanding of jökulhlaup dynamics requires accurate information about ice-dammed lake volume and ice-proximal jö kulhlaup discharge.

Abstract. Troughs in the latitudinal distribution of electron density are a well-known feature of the ionosphere from subauroral to polar latitudes. The location and depth of the trough minimum, the width of the feature, and the horizontal gradients in electron density associated with the trough walls are all quantities of interest or concern to practical applications of radio systems involving the ionosphere. In practice, the precise characteristics of trough-like structures have been difficult to monitor using ground-based methods. Ionospheric tomography represents a new development that is maturing into a technique ideally suited to the study of electron density troughs. Results are presented from a variety of observations made during tomographic campaigns in northern Europe. A long-term investigation has been made of the main trough from a network of stations in the United Kingdom. The position of the trough minimum and the wall gradients have been studied on a diurnal basis using tomographic images reconstructed from measurements for a succession of passes of Navy Navigation Satellite System satellites. With stations deployed for more than 6 months, the average behavior has also been studied. Examples are shown of extreme behavior of the trough under very disturbed geomagnetic conditions, during which tomography continues to yield images while the limitations of ionosondes are exposed. Studies of narrow troughs with very steep gradients seen at auroral latitudes have been used to investigate some of the successes and limitations of the tomographic method. Measurements made in the polar cap show the depleted densities of the polar hole in the center of the dawn convection cell and illustrate the power of the tomographic method at high latitudes. Finally, the dayside trough at the high-latitude boundary between corotating and counterstreaming flux tubes in the afternoon sector has been revealed in a tomographic image extending over some 30 ø latitude, made using a chain of six stations in Scandinavia.
