Suitability of ground-based SfM-MVS for monitoring glacial and periglacial processes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Photo-based surface reconstruction is rapidly emerging as an alternative survey technique to lidar (light detection and ranging) in many fields of geoscience fostered by the recent development of computer vision algorithms such as structure from motion ...

Estimation and Analysis of Glacier Mass Balance in the Southeastern Tibetan Plateau Using TanDEM-X Bi-Static InSAR during 2000–2014

open access: yesAtmosphere
In recent decades, glaciers in the southeastern Tibetan Plateau (SETP) have been rapidly melting and showing a large scale of glacier mass loss. Due to the lack of large-scale, high-resolution, and high-precision observations, knowledge on the spatial ...

Estimating the characteristics of runoff inflow into Lake Gojal in ungauged, highly glacierized upper Hunza River Basin, Pakistan [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Motivated by the potential flood outburst of Lake Gojal in the ungauged highly glacierized (27%) upper Hunza River Basin (HRB) in Pakistan that was dammed by a massive landslide on 4 January 2010, we attempt to analyze the characteristics of water inflow

Changes of glacier area in the Austrian alps between 1973 and 1992 derived from Landsat data

open access: yes, 1997
Data from Landsat satellite sensors are used to obtain an inventory of 165 Austrian glaciers and their temporal change. Applications and modifications of existing remote sensing algorithms for glacier clas- sification are discussed.

The GLIMS geospatial glacier database: A new tool for studying glacier change

open access: yesGlobal and Planetary Change, 2007
Original abstract: The Global Land Ice Measurement from Space (GLIMS) project is a cooperative effort of over sixty institutions world-wide with the goal of inventorying a majority of the world's estimated 160000 glaciers. Each institution (called a Regional Center, or RC) oversees the analysis of satellite imagery for a particular region containing ...

Glacier Changes on the Pik Topografov Massif, East Sayan Range, Southeast Siberia, from Remote Sensing Data

open access: yesGeosciences, 2018
Small mountain glaciers represent the most abundant class in many glaciarized areas around the world; however, less is known about their recent area changes under climatic variability of the last decades.
