Estimation of Glacier Thickness From Surface Mass Balance and Ice Flow Velocities: A Case Study on Argentière Glacier, France

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2018
Glacier thickness distribution is a prerequisite to simulate the future of glaciers. Inaccurate thicknesses may lead to significant uncertainties in the timing of future changes to glaciers and their consequences for water resources or sea level rise ...

Creep enhancement and sliding in a temperate, hard-bedded alpine glacier [PDF]

The Cryosphere
Glacier internal deformation is usually described by Glen's flow law using two material parameters: the creep factor (A) and the flow law exponent (n).

Intermediate‐depth icequakes and harmonic tremor in an Alpine glacier (Glacier d'Argentière, France): Evidence for hydraulic fracturing? [PDF]

Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, 2015
AbstractWe detected several thousand deep englacial icequakes on Glacier d'Argentière (Mont‐Blanc massif) between 30 March and 3 May 2012. These events have been classified in eight clusters. Inside each cluster, the waveforms are similar for P waves and S waves, although the time delay between the P waves and the S waves vary by up to 0.03 s ...

AlpIce‐1: a database of geochronological and geomorphological constraints on Alps‐wide palaeoglacier fluctuations between the Last Glacial Maximum and the Holocene

Boreas, EarlyView.
The AlpIce‐1 database is the first compilation of published geomorphological and geochronological markers constraining build‐up, culmination and decay of glaciers from the Last Glacial Maximum through the Holocene across the entire European Alps. AlpIce‐1 integrates more than 4200 surface‐exposure and radiocarbon ages, homogenized, quality controlled ...

Basal icequakes recorded beneath an Alpine glacier (Glacier d'Argentière, Mont Blanc, France): Evidence for stick‐slip motion? [PDF]

Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, 2015
AbstractWhile basal icequakes associated with glacier motion have been detected under Antarctica for several decades, there remains very little evidence of stick‐slip motion for Alpine glaciers. Here we analyzed 2357 basal icequakes that were recorded at Glacier d'Argentière (Mont‐Blanc Massif) between February and November of 2012 and that are likely ...

Ice‐Dynamic Constraints on Glacier Climatic Mass Balance Using Inverse Techniques

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 8, 28 April 2026.
Abstract Accurate glacier climatic mass balance (CMB) modeling relies on pertinent atmospheric data for forcing and in situ stake measurements for calibration, which are often sparse or unavailable in remote high‐mountain regions. This study presents a proof‐of‐concept for estimating glacier‐wide CMB fields by combining mass conservation and ice ...

Glacier‐Atmosphere Interactions and Feedbacks in High‐Mountain Regions ‐ A Review

Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Mountain glaciers are among the natural systems most vulnerable to climate change. However, their interactions with the atmosphere are complex and not fully understood. These interactions can trigger rapid adjustments and climate feedbacks that either amplify or attenuate atmospheric signals, influencing both glacier response and large‐scale ...

A Nonlinear Statistical Model for Extracting a Climatic Signal From Glacier Mass Balance Measurements

Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 123, Issue 9, Page 2228-2242, September 2018., 2018
Abstract Understanding changes in glacier mass balances is essential for investigating climate changes. However, glacier‐wide mass balances determined from geodetic observations do not provide a relevant climatic signal as they depend on the dynamic response of the glaciers.
