Spatio-temporal flow variations driving heat exchange processes at a mountain glacier [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2020
Multi-scale interactions between the glacier surface, the overlying atmosphere, and the surrounding alpine terrain are highly complex and force temporally and spatially variable local glacier energy fluxes and melt rates.

Complex Greenland outlet glacier flow captured. [PDF]

open access: yesNat Commun, 2016
The Greenland Ice Sheet is losing mass at an accelerating rate due to increased surface melt and flow acceleration in outlet glaciers. Quantifying future dynamic contributions to sea level requires accurate portrayal of outlet glaciers in ice sheet ...

The Mechanics of Glacier Flow [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 1952
AbstractThe flow of valley glaciers is examined in the light of recent laboratory experiments on the behaviour of ice under load. Simple expressions are given for the velocity distributions in some cases of laminar flow, and the modification of a pure laminar flow theory necessary to explain the formation of transverse crevasses and thrust planes is ...

Evolution of debris flow and moraine failure in the Gangotri Glacier region, Garhwal Himalaya: Hydro-geomorphological aspects

open access: yesGeomorphology, 2019
A debris flow occurred in the foreland of Gangotri Glacier by its former tributary, Meru (Bamak) Glacier between 16 and 19 July 2017. We investigated the debris flow using pre- and post-event field observations; hydro-meteorological data along with ...

Weekly Glacier Flow Estimation from Dense Satellite Time Series Using Adapted Optical Flow Technology [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2017
Contemporary optical remote sensing satellites or constellations of satellites can acquire imagery at sub-weekly or even daily timescales. Thus, these systems facilitate the potential for within-season velocity estimation of glacier surfaces.

Analyses of UAV and GNSS based flow velocity variations of the rock glacier Lazaun (Ötztal Alps, South Tyrol, Italy)

open access: yesGeomorphology, 2020
Flow velocities were measured on the active rock glacier Lazaun by eleven GNNS (2006–2018) and six UAV campaigns (2016–2018) to better understand the flow pattern and its possible causes.
