Response of a marine-terminating Greenland outlet glacier to abrupt cooling 8200 and 9300 years ago [PDF]

, 2011
Long-term records of Greenland outlet-glacier change extending beyond the satellite era can inform future predictions of Greenland Ice Sheet behavior. Of particular relevance is elucidating the Greenland Ice Sheet's response to decadal- and centennial ...

Evaluation of surface mass-balance records using geodetic data and physically-based modelling, Place and Peyto glaciers, western Canada

Journal of Glaciology, 2023
Reliable, long-term records of glacier mass change are invaluable to the glaciological and climate-change communities and used to assess the importance of glacier wastage on streamflow. Here we evaluate the in-situ observations of glacier mass change for

Measuring glacier mass changes from space—a review [PDF]

Reports on Progress in Physics, 2023
Abstract Glaciers distinct from the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets are currently losing mass rapidly with direct and severe impacts on the habitability of some regions on Earth as glacier meltwater contributes to sea-level rise and alters regional water resources in arid regions.

An approach to derive regional snow lines and glacier mass change from MODIS imagery, western North America [PDF]

The Cryosphere, 2013
We describe a method to calculate regional snow line elevations and annual equilibrium line altitudes (ELAs) from daily MODIS imagery (MOD02QKM) on large glaciers and icefields in western North America.

Modeling the Response of the Langtang Glacier and the Hintereisferner to a Changing Climate Since the Little Ice Age

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2019
This study aims at developing and applying a spatially-distributed coupled glacier mass balance and ice-flow model to attribute the response of glaciers to natural and anthropogenic climate change.

Compiling a new glacier inventory for southeastern Qinghai–Tibet Plateau from Landsat and PALSAR data

Journal of Glaciology, 2016
Glacier change has been recognized as an important climate variable due to its sensitive response to climate change. Although there are a large number of glaciers distributed over the southeastern Qinghai–Tibetan Plateau, the region is poorly represented

Quantifying the contribution of glacier runoff to streamflow in the upper Columbia River Basin, Canada [PDF]

, 2010
Glacier melt provides important contributions to streamflow in many mountainous regions. Hydrologic model calibration in glacier-fed catchments is difficult because errors in modelling snow accumulation can be offset by compensating errors in glacier ...

THE REACTION OF FISHT GLACIER (WESTERN CAUCASUS) TO CURRENT CLIMATE CHANGE

InterCarto. InterGIS, 2017
We have generalized observation data on Fisht Glacier – the most western glacier in the Caucasus located at elevation 2450–2750 m asl. Considering location of Fisht Glacier we might сonsider it one of the most sensitive to climate change glaciers in the ...

Potential climatic transitions with profound impact on Europe [PDF]

, 2011
We discuss potential transitions of six climatic subsystems with large-scale impact on Europe, sometimes denoted as tipping elements. These are the ice sheets on Greenland and West Antarctica, the Atlantic thermohaline circulation, Arctic sea ice, Alpine
