Using a Web Map Service to map Little Ice Age glacier extents at regional scales
Annals of Glaciology, 2023 Extending the record of glacier area changes into the past improves our understanding of climate change impacts. Although analogue maps showing historic glacier extents are abundant, digital outlines from before the satellite era are sparse as the ...

Glacier inventory and recent glacier variations in the Andes of Chile, South America
Annals of Glaciology, 2017 The first satellite-derived inventory of glaciers and rock glaciers in Chile, created from Landsat TM/ETM+ images spanning between 2000 and 2003 using a semi-automated procedure, is presented in a single standardized format.

Comparison of multiple glacier inventories with a new inventory derived from high-resolution ALOS imagery in the Bhutan Himalaya [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2016 Digital glacier inventories are invaluable data sets for revealing the characteristics of glacier distribution and for upscaling measurements from selected locations to entire mountain ranges.

The GAMDAM glacier inventory: a quality-controlled inventory of Asian glaciers [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2015 We present a new glacier inventory for high-mountain Asia named "Glacier Area Mapping for Discharge from the Asian Mountains" (GAMDAM). Glacier outlines were delineated manually using 356 Landsat ETM+ scenes in 226 path-row sets from the period 1999–2003,

An automatic approach to delineate the cold–temperate transition surface with ground-penetrating radar on polythermal glaciers [PDF]
Annals of Glaciology, 2014 AbstractGround-penetrating radar has been widely used to map the thermal structure of polythermal glaciers. Hitherto, the cold–temperate transition surface (CTS) in radargrams has been identified by a labour-intensive and subjective manual picking method. We introduce a new automatic approach for picking the CTS that uses the difference in signal power

Deriving a year 2000 glacier inventory for New Zealand from the existing 2016 inventory
Annals of Glaciology, 2023 Due to adverse snow and cloud conditions, only a few inventories are available for the maritime glaciers in New Zealand. These are difficult to compare as different approaches and baseline data have been used to create them.

Image classification of marine-terminating outlet glaciers in Greenland using deep learning methods [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2021 A wealth of research has focused on elucidating the key controls on mass loss from the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets in response to climate forcing, specifically in relation to the drivers of marine-terminating outlet glacier change.
