Modeling Glacier Elevation Change From DEM Time Series [PDF]
Remote Sensing, 2015 In this study, a methodology for glacier elevation reconstruction from Digital Elevation Model (DEM) time series (tDEM) is described for modeling the evolution of glacier elevation and estimating related volume change, with focus on medium-resolution and

Cast shadows reveal changes in glacier surface elevation [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2023 Increased rates of glacier retreat and thinning need accurate local estimates of glacier elevation change to predict future changes in glacier runoff and their contribution to sea level rise.

Bayesian Estimation of Glacier Surface Elevation Changes From DEMs
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2023 Accurate estimates of glacier surface elevation changes are paramount for various aspects of the study of the cryosphere, from glacier flow and thickness estimates to hydrological forecasts and projections of sea-level-rise.

60 Years of Glacier Elevation and Mass Changes in the Maipo River Basin, Central Andes of Chile
Remote Sensing, 2020 Glaciers in the central Andes of Chile are fundamental freshwater sources for ecosystems and communities. Overall, glaciers in this region have shown continuous recession and down-wasting, but long-term glacier mass balance studies providing precise ...

A new inventory of High Mountain Asia surging glaciers derived from multiple elevation datasets since the 1970s [PDF]
Earth System Science Data, 2023 Glacier surging is an unusual instability of ice flow, and inventories of surging glaciers are important for regional glacier mass balance studies and glacier dynamic studies. Glacier surges in High Mountain Asia (HMA) have been widely reported. However,
