Positive glacial regulatory processes promote sustainability of Asian glacier water resources
Communications Earth & EnvironmentGlacier response to climate change results in rapid glacier water resource loss. Positive glacial regulatory processes (GRPs) are processes that buffer glacier water resource losses.

Reconstruction of Petermann glacier velocity time series using multi-source remote sensing images
International Journal of Applied Earth Observations and GeoinformationGlacier velocity is one of the crucial parameters in the research of glacier dynamics. Synthetic aperture radar (SAR), as an active microwave sensor, represents a common method to monitor glacier velocity.

THE DEGRADATION OF KARAUGOM GLACIER. PART 1. THE DYNAMICS OF THE GLACIER’S RETREAT
Вестник Владикавказского научного центра, 2017 В статье рассмотрена динамика отступания ледника Караугом, одного из трех самых больших ледников Кавказа. В период с максимальной ста- дии Малого ледникового периода (стадия фернау, 50-е годы XIX века) до 2017 г. ледник отступил на 3 042 м, со средней скоростью 18,55 м/год. В первый же год после схода селевого потока в 1989 г. ледник отступил на 455 м.

Lake pulses driven by glacier melting and climate variability
Scientific ReportsThe Tibetan Plateau is home to numerous glaciers that are important for freshwater supply and climate regulation. These glaciers, which are highly sensitive to climatic variations, serve as vital indicators of climate change.

Dynamics of debris-covered glaciers
, 2021 The presence of a supraglacial debris layer affects the melt of underlying ice which causes debris-covered glaciers to respond differently to climate forcing compared to clean-ice glaciers. To further complicate matters, supraglacial debris cover is not constant in time, but changes as a consequence of redistribution by ice flow, melt-out of englacial ...
