Glacier dynamics near the calving front of Bowdoin Glacier, northwestern Greenland [PDF]

Journal of Glaciology, 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.

Geometric Controls of Tidewater Glacier Dynamics [PDF]

The Cryosphere, 2021
Abstract. Retreat of marine outlet glaciers often initiates depletion of inland ice through dynamic adjustments of the upstream glacier. The local topography of a fjord may promote or inhibit such retreat, and therefore fjord geometry constitutes a critical control on ice sheet mass balance.

Asynchronous glacier dynamics during the Antarctic Cold Reversal in central Patagonia [PDF]

Quaternary Science Reviews, 2018
We present 14 new 10Be cosmogenic nuclide exposure ages quantifying asynchronous readvances during the Antarctic Cold Reversal from glaciers in the Baker Valley region of central Patagonia.

Automated detection and temporal monitoring of crevasses using remote sensing and their implications for glacier dynamics

Annals of Glaciology, 2016
Detailed studies on temporal changes of crevasses and their linkage with glacier dynamics are scarce in the Himalayan context. Observations of temporally changing surficial crevasse patterns and their orientations are suggestive of the processes that ...

Seasonal Dynamics of a Temperate Tibetan Glacier Revealed by High-Resolution UAV Photogrammetry and In Situ Measurements

Remote Sensing, 2020
The seasonal dynamic changes of Tibetan glaciers have seen little prior investigation, despite the increase in geodetic studies of multi-year changes.

Multi-decadal basal slip enhancement at Saskatchewan Glacier, Canadian Rocky Mountains

Journal of Glaciology, 2023
Glacier motion responds dynamically to changing meltwater inputs, but the multi-decadal response of basal sliding to climate remains poorly constrained due to its sensitivity across multiple timescales.

Evaluation of structure-from-motion for analysis of small-scale glacier dynamics

, 2021
Measurement of the geometry of marine-terminating glaciers is challenging due to the lack of stable ground areas in close proximity to the glacier. This precludes the use of fixed measuring devices and restricts the placement of ground control points. We

Investigating the Intra-Annual Dynamics of Kunlun Glacier in the West Kunlun Mountains, China, From Ascending and Descending Sentinel-1 SAR Observations

IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2022
Monitoring glacier dynamics is an effective approach for quantifying the response of the glaciers in cold arid mountainous areas to climate change. However, the quantification of short-term flow dynamics of the mountain glaciers in cold-dry climates has ...

Sensitivity analysis of a King George Island outlet glacier, South Shetlands, Antarctica [PDF]

Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2023
The Lange glacier is an outlet glacier situated in the Admiralty Bay, King George Island, Peninsula Antarctica. It retreated about 1 km since the 1950s.
