The Annals was established in 1980, has been Gold Open Access since 2016 and is currently published in between one and five thematic issues per year. Every branch of glaciology has featured in at least one issue of the Annals, while recent themes have included Radioglaciology; Glaciers and Ice Sheets in a Warming Climate; Ice Core Drilling; Sea Ice; Glacial Erosion and Sedimentation, Cryoseismology; Cryosphere and Biosphere; and Glaciology in High Mountain Asia.

The Society is grateful to our founder’s widow, Loris Seligman, for a generous bequest that made it possible to publish back issues of the Society’s journals online for the benefit of glaciologists worldwide.
