Processes of crevasse formation and the dynamics of calving glaciers : a study at Breiđamerkurjökull [PDF]
, 2009 A new model proposed by Benn et al. (2006, 2007) explains the dynamics of calving glaciers based on a new sliding law and a calving criterion modified from a crevasse depth model. In this thesis three key elements of this model are tested: 1) the role

Flow velocity records at rock glacier Outer Hochebenkar (Äußeres Hochebenkar), 2016
, 2021 Surface velocities have been regularly monitored at the rock glacier in Outer Hochebenkar, Ötztal Alps, Austria since the early 1950s. This data collection provides surface velocity time series, showing mean profile velocities of four cross profiles ...

Remote Sensing, 2023 Cross-correlation of image-pairs derived from both optical and synthetic aperture radar satellite imagery is the most common technique for measuring glacier flow velocity and quantifying the dynamics and discharge of glaciers. While the technique has been shown to be effective on polar ice sheets, the accuracy of satellite-derived velocities in ...

Factors controlling the accelerated expansion of Imja Lake, Mount Everest region, Nepal
Annals of Glaciology, 2016 This study explores the link between area increase of Imja Tsho (Lake) and changes of Imja Glacier (area ~25km2) under the influence of climate change using multitemporal satellite imagery and local climate data. Between 1962 and 2013, Imja Lake expanded
