Quasi-static granular flow of ice mélange [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
We use Landsat 8 imagery to generate ice mélange velocity fields at Greenland’s three most productive outlet glaciers: Jakobshavn Isbræ, Helheim Glacier, and Kangerdlugssuaq Glacier.

The role of glacier mice in the invertebrate colonisation of glacial surfaces: the moss balls of the Falljökull, Iceland [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Glacier surfaces have a surprisingly complex ecology. Cryoconite holes contain diverse invertebrate communities while other invertebrates, such as Collembola often graze on algae and windblown dead organic on the glacier surface.

Geomatic methods applied to the change study of the la Paúl Rock Glacier, Spanish Pyrenees [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Producción CientíficaRock glaciers are one of the most important features of the mountain permafrost in the Pyrenees. La Paúl is an active rock glacier located in the north face of the Posets massif in the La Paúl glacier cirque (Spanish Pyrenees).

Thinning of the Monte Perdido Glacier in the Spanish Pyrenees since 1981 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Producción CientíficaThis paper analyzes the evolution of the Monte Perdido Glacier, the third largest glacier in the Pyrenees, from 1981 to the present. We assessed the evolution of the glacier's surface area by analysis of aerial photographs from 1981,

Effect of topography on subglacial discharge and submarine melting during tidewater glacier retreat. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
-We explored secular variations in subglacial discharge and submarine melting with an idealized model -Subglacial discharge increases as tidewater glaciers retreat along retrograde beds -Submarine melting depends on subglacial discharge and ...

Influence of subglacial drainage system evolution on glacier surface motion: Haut Glacier d'Arolla, Switzerland [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
The relationship between the evolution of subglacial drainage system morphology and spatial patterns of glacier surface velocity was investigated using dye tracing experiments and ground surveying throughout the 1995 melt season at Haut Glacier d'Arolla,

Changes in Imja Tsho in the Mount Everest Region of Nepal [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Imja Tsho, located in the Sagarmatha ( Everest) National Park of Nepal, is one of the most studied and rapidly growing lakes in the Himalayan range. Compared with previous studies, the results of our sonar bathymetric survey conducted in September of ...

Tributary Glacier Surges: An Exceptional Concentration at Panmah Glacier, Karakoram Himalaya [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Four tributaries of Panmah Glacier have surged in less than a decade, three in quick succession between 2001 and 2005. Since 1985, 13 surges have been recorded in the Karakoram Himalaya, more than in any comparable period since the 1850s.

Melt regimes, internal stratigraphy, and flow dynamics of three glaciers in the Alaska Range [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We used ground-penetrating radar (GPR), GPS and glaciochemistry to evaluate melt regimes and ice depths, important variables for mass-balance and ice-volume studies, of Upper Yentna Glacier, Upper Kahiltna Glacier and the Mount Hunter ice divide, Alaska.
