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

A spatially resolved estimate of High Mountain Asia glacier mass balances, 2000-2016
Nature Geoscience, 2017 High Mountain Asia hosts the largest glacier concentration outside the polar regions. These glaciers are important contributors to streamflow in one of the most populated areas of the world. Past studies have used methods that can only provide regionally-

Evaluating the impact of the Central Chile Mega Drought on debris cover, broadband albedo, and surface drainage system of a Dry Andes glacier [PDF]
, 2023 In recent years, Chile has experienced an extraordinary drought that has had significant impacts on both the livelihoods of people and the environment, including the Andean glaciers. This study focuses on analyzing the surface processes of Universidad Glacier, a benchmark glacier for the Dry Andes.

Glaciological results of the 2005 expedition to Inylchek Glacier, Central Tian Shan [PDF]
, 2008 Like many other glaciers in Central Asia, Southern Inylchek glacier in the Kyrgyz Tian Shan is covered by supraglacial moraine, which drastically influences melt rates and complicates the estimation of ablation. The quantification of sub-debris melt from

Calving on tidewater glaciers amplified by submarine frontal melting [PDF]
O'Leary, M. and Christoffersen, P.: Calving on tidewater glaciers
amplified by submarine frontal melting, The Cryosphere Discuss., 6,
3287-3316, 2012, 2012 While it has been shown repeatedly that ocean conditions exhibit an important control on the behaviour of grounded tidewater glaciers, modelling studies have focused largely on the effects of basal and surface melting. Here, a finite-element model of stresses near the front of a tidewater glacier is used to investigate the effects of frontal melting on

Glacier dynamics near the calving front of Bowdoin Glacier, northwestern Greenland [PDF]
, 2015 To better understand recent rapid recession of marine-terminating glaciers in Greenland, we performed satellite and field observations near the calving front of Bowdoin Glacier, a 3 km wide outlet glacier in northwestern Greenland.

Seabed corrugations beneath an Antarctic ice shelf revealed by autonomous underwater vehicle survey: Origin and implications for the history of Pine Island Glacier [PDF]
, 2013 Ice shelves are critical features in the debate about West Antarctic ice sheet change and sea level rise, both because they limit ice discharge and because they are sensitive to change in the surrounding ocean.
