A permanently installed terrestrial laser scanner (TLS) helps to investigate surface changes at high spatio-temporal resolution. Previous studies show that the annual and seasonal glacier volume, and subsequently the mass balance, can be measured by TLSs.

Cryodiversity: the World of Cold on the Earth and in the Solar System [PDF]
Effects and objects associated with the cryosphere, the world of cold, are extremely diverse due to anomalous thermodynamic and electromagnetic properties of ice, intermediate strength of hydrogen bonds, broad occurrence of cryogenic systems, and ...

Status and Change of the Cryosphere in the Extended Hindu Kush Himalaya Region
The cryosphere is defined by the presence of frozen water in its many forms: glaciers, ice caps, ice sheets, snow, permafrost, and river and lake ice.

Permafrost trapped natural gas in Svalbard, Norway
Permafrost is widespread in the High Arctic, including the Norwegian archipelago of Svalbard. The uppermost permafrost intervals have been well studied, but the processes at its base and the impacts of the underlying geology have been largely overlooked.

Remote Sensing and Modeling of the Cryosphere in High Mountain Asia: A Multidisciplinary Review
Over the past decades, the cryosphere has changed significantly in High Mountain Asia (HMA), leading to multiple natural hazards such as rock–ice avalanches, glacier collapse, debris flows, landslides, and glacial lake outburst floods (GLOFs). Monitoring
