Understanding the Drivers of Coastal Flood Exposure and Risk From 1860 to 2100
Earth's Future, Volume 10, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Global coastal flood exposure (population and assets) has been growing since the beginning of the industrial age and is likely to continue to grow through 21st century. Three main drivers are responsible: (a) climate‐related mean sea‐level change, (b) vertical land movement contributing to relative sea‐level rise, and (c) socio‐economic ...

Earth's Future, Volume 10, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions are causing unprecedented changes to the climate. In 2015, at the United Nations (UN) Conference of the Parties in Paris, France, countries agreed to limit the global mean temperature (GMT) increase to 2°C above preindustrial levels, and to pursue efforts to limit warming to 1.5°C.

Repeating Low Frequency Icequakes in the Mont‐Blanc Massif Triggered by Snowfalls
Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 127, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Deformation mechanisms of glaciers are highly sensitive to basal temperature; the motion of temperate glaciers is dominated by basal slip while cold‐based glaciers deform mainly by internal creep. While basal slip is usually aseismic, unstable slip sometimes occurs and can be detected by seismometers.

, 2021 AbstractSynthetic aperture radar (SAR) provides large coverage and high resolution, and it has been proven to be sensitive to both surface and near-surface features related to accumulation, ablation, and metamorphism of snow and firn. Exploiting this sensitivity, SAR polarimetry and polarimetric interferometry found application to land ice for instance

Modeling energy and mass balance of Shallap Glacier, Peru [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2013 We calculated the distributed surface mass and energy balance of Shallap Glacier, Cordillera Blanca, Peru (9° S, 77° W, 4700–5700 m a.s.l., ~ 7 km2), on hourly time steps for two years (September 2006–August 2008) using a process-based model and ...
