An Extraction Method for Glacial Lakes Based on Landsat-8 Imagery Using an Improved U-Net Network
IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2021 Remote sensing monitoring of glacial lakes is an indispensable tool for identifying and preventing glacial lake disasters. At present, the existing extraction methods of glacial lakes based on Landsat remote sensing image have achieved remarkable results,

Reconciling diverse lacustrine and terrestrial system response to penultimate deglacial warming in southern Europe [PDF]
, 2015 Unlike the most recent deglaciation, the regional expression of climate changes during the penultimate deglaciation remains understudied, even though it led into a period of excess warmth with estimates of global average temperature 1–2 °C, and sea level

A new remote hazard and risk assessment framework for glacial lakes in the Nepal Himalaya [PDF]
Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2016 Glacial lake outburst floods (GLOFs) pose a significant threat to downstream communities and infrastructure due to their potential to rapidly unleash stored lake water.

Refining the interpretation of lacustrine carbonate isotope records: Implications of a mineralogy-specific Lake Van case study [PDF]
, 2019 Oxygen and carbon isotope (δ18O and δ13C) data from bulk carbonates are widely applied proxies for temperature, the precipitation/evaporation ratio and productivity in lacustrine palaeohydrology and palaeoclimatology. In case of the terminal and alkaline

Light attenuation characteristics of glacially-fed lakes [PDF]
, 2014 Transparency is a fundamental characteristic of aquatic ecosystems and is highly responsive to changes in climate and land use. The transparency of glacially-fed lakes may be a particularly sensitive sentinel characteristic of these changes.
