A Systematic, Regional Assessment of High Mountain Asia Glacier Mass Balance

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2020
High-mountain Asia (HMA) constitutes the largest glacierized region outside of the Earth's polar regions. Although available observations are limited, long-term records indicate sustained HMA glacier mass loss since ~1850, with accelerated loss in recent

Partitioning the Uncertainty of Ensemble Projections of Global Glacier Mass Change

open access: yesEarth's Future, 2020
Glacier mass loss is recognized as a major contributor to current sea level rise. However, large uncertainties remain in projections of glacier mass loss on global and regional scales.

Glacier Mass Change in High Mountain Asia Through 2100 Using the Open-Source Python Glacier Evolution Model (PyGEM)

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2020
Glaciers in High Mountain Asia are an important freshwater resource for large populations living downstream who rely on runoff for hydropower, irrigation, and municipal use.

Historically unprecedented global glacier decline in the early 21st century

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 2015
Observations show that glaciers around the world are in retreat and losing mass. Internationally coordinated for over a century, glacier monitoring activities provide an unprecedented dataset of glacier observations from ground, air and space.

The second Chinese glacier inventory: data, methods and results

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 2015
The second Chinese glacier inventory was compiled based on 218 Landsat TM/ETM+ scenes acquired mainly during 2006-10. The widely used band ratio segmentation method was applied as the first step in delineating glacier outlines, and then intensive manual ...

Heterogeneous Influence of Glacier Morphology on the Mass Balance Variability in High Mountain Asia

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research F: Earth Surface, 2019
We investigate the control of the morphological variables on the 2000–2016 glacier‐wide mass balances of 6,470 individual glaciers of High Mountain Asia. We separate the data set into 12 regions assumed to be climatically homogeneous.
