Glacial and periglacial landforms and their recent dynamics in the Las Veguitas catchment, Cordillera Frontal of the Andes (Argentina)

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science
The semi-arid Andes of South America are characterized by large areas with glacial and periglacial environments. This study focuses on the distribution and recent dynamics of glacial and periglacial landforms in the Las Veguitas catchment (3000–5500 m ...

Mass-balance changes of the debris-covered glaciers in the Langtang Himal, Nepal, from 1974 to 1999 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Thick debris cover on glaciers can significantly reduce ice melt. However, several studies have suggested that debris-covered glaciers in the Himalaya might have lost mass at a rate similar to debris-free glaciers.

Debris-covered glaciers mapping based on machine learning and multi-source satellite images over Eastern Pamir

open access: yesBig Earth Data
Debris-covered glaciers present significant challenges for accurately mapping and monitoring glacier dynamics, particularly in regions like the Eastern Pamir Plateau.

Feedbacks and timescales in the modelled transient response of debris-covered glaciers [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere
Glaciers worldwide are becoming increasingly debris-covered, yet many aspects within the coupled glacier-debris system are not well-understood. While the insulating effect of continuous debris layers is well-known, the transient feedbacks with glacier ...

Deriving seasonal and annual surface mass balance for debris-covered glaciers from flow-corrected satellite stereo DEM time series

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology
Glaciers in High-Mountain Asia are experiencing varying rates and patterns of mass loss due to a complex interplay between glacier surface processes, local conditions and climate forcing.

Do debris-covered glaciers demonstrate distinctive hydrological behaviour compared to clean glaciers? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Supraglacial debris is known to strongly influence the distribution of glacier surface melt. Since melt inputs drive the formation and evolution of glacial drainage systems, it should follow that the drainage systems of debris-covered glaciers will ...

Present extension of the debris-covered glaciers at the regional scale of the French Alps

open access: yes, 2012
As part of the EU-funded project GlaRiskAlp (Alcotra France-Italy), we realize a French Alps glaciers inventory. For the present glacier extension, it is based on 2006-2009 orthophotographs (50 cm resolution), and lists the French Alps glaciers, maps ...

Glacio-limnological interactions at lake-calving glaciers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Iceberg calving is an efficient ablation process which introduces mechanical instability to glacier systems and can cause non-linear climatic response.
