Land- to lake-terminating transition triggers dynamic thinning of a Bhutanese glacier [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2022 There have been rapid increases in both the number and expansion of the proglacial lakes across High Mountain Asia. However, the relationship between proglacial lakes and glacier dynamics remains unclear in the Himalayan region.

IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2023 The eastern Pamir Plateau, with a mean altitude of 5000 m, forms a large-scale glacier region with a size of 2054 km2 that serves as an important environmental climate condition for central Asia. In this article, we estimated the spatio-temporal patterns

EXTRACTION OF ICE FLOW VELOCITY BY COMBINATION OF DINSAR AND OFFSET TRACKING METHODS FOR PINE GLACIER, WEST ANTARCTICA [PDF]
The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2022 West Antarctica is the main contributor to global sea level rise at present and in the coming decades, since it occupies 80% of mass loss in Antarctica.

Long-term records of glacier surface velocities in the Ötztal Alps (Austria) [PDF]
Earth System Science Data, 2019 Climatic forcing affects glacier mass balance, which causes changes in ice flow dynamics and glacier length changes on different timescales. Mass balance and length changes are operationally used for glacier monitoring, whereas only a few time series of ...
