Dynamics of the spatiotemporal velocity of glaciers on the eastern slope of Mount Gongga, China, under climate change

open access: yesAdvances in Climate Change Research
The quantitative assessment of glacier flow velocity dynamics plays a pivotal role in understanding its response mechanisms concerning climate warming. This work provides a systematic quantitative assessment of the deceleration status of glaciers in this

Dynamic difference between surging and normal glaciers in the context of climate change: Insights from multi-source remote sensing

open access: yesJournal of Hydrology: Regional Studies
Study region: Yunfeng Peak region, High Mountain Asia Study focus: High Mountain Asia is the most glacier-rich region outside the polar areas and plays a critical role in alleviating water resource pressures across Asia. Understanding the complexities of

Long-term analysis of surface temperature trends and dynamics deglaciation of the Eidembreen glacier (Svalbard) based on Landsat data for 1984–2025 [PDF]

open access: yesThe International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences
Climate warming in the Arctic leads to accelerated glacier retreat and the formation of extensive deglaciated surfaces, substantially altering glacier–periglacial interactions. On the western coast of Svalbard, retreat of the polythermal Eidembreen

Modelling Dynamics of Valley Glaciers

open access: yes, 2012
Ever since the Paleoproterozoic snowball Earth era, ca. 2.4 billion years ago (e.g. Hoffman & Schrag, 2000; Kirschvink, 1992), and beyond, the landscape of the planet Earth has been shaped up by the tremendous amount of scouring due to the repeated waxing and waning of ice masses.

Investigating seasonal velocity variations of selected glaciers in high mountain asia

open access: yesScience of Remote Sensing
Glacier velocity is a sensitive indicator of mass balance and is key to understanding how glaciers respond to climate change. Monitoring glacier velocity at high temporal resolutions enables a better understanding of the drivers of glacier dynamics ...

The Potential of Low-Cost UAVs and Open-Source Photogrammetry Software for High-Resolution Monitoring of Alpine Glaciers: A Case Study from the Kanderfirn (Swiss Alps)

open access: yesGeosciences, 2019
Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) are a rapidly evolving tool in geosciences and are increasingly deployed for studying the dynamic processes of the earth’s surface. To assess the potential of autonomous low-cost UAVs for the mapping and monitoring of

Acceleration Processes of Glacier Velocity Driven by Ice-Dammed Lakes: A Case Study of Southern Inylchek Glacier and Lake Merzbacher in Central Tian Shan

open access: yesIEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing
The ice-dammed Lake Merzbacher forms in depressions beside the Southern Inylchek Glacier and drains periodically through subglacial drainage systems, strongly influencing glacier dynamics.
