Intra-annual and intra-seasonal flow dynamics of a High Arctic polythermal valley glacier [PDF]
Measurements of surface dynamics on polythermal John Evans Glacier, Nunavut, Canada, over two winter periods and every 7-10 days throughout two melt seasons (June-July 2000, 2001) provide new insight into spatio-temporal patterns of High Arctic glacier ...

Inventory of glaciers in the Eastern Sayan on the basis of space surveys
Small glaciers (areas smaller 1 km2) are the most numerous in most mountainous and glacial regions of the Earth, but their responses to the present‑day climate change are still to be investigated.

A comparison of glacier melt on debris-covered glaciers in the northern and southern Caucasus [PDF]
The glacier coverage in the Caucasus Mountains underwent considerable changes during the last decades. In some regions, the observed reduction in glacier area is comparable to those in the European Alps and the extent of supra-glacial debris increased on

Glacier inventory and atlas of West Greenland
The glacier inventory and atlas provides the localisation and description of over 5000 glacier units in western Greenland between 59° 30´ and 71° 00´N. Registration is based on natural hydrological basins, in accordance with the recommendations of the International Commission on Snow and Ice (ICSI) but modified and simplified to meet Greenland ...

The Austrian Glacier Inventory GI 3, 2006, in ArcGIS (shapefile) format
The Austrian glacier inventories of 1969 and 1998 have been updated by combining hill shades with different illumination angles calculated from LiDAR DEMs and by comparison with orthophoto data, where available.

Downwasting and supraglacial lake evolution on the debris-covered Ngozumpa Glacier, Khumbu Himal, Nepal [PDF]
In recent decades, the downwasting of several debris-covered glaciers in the Himalaya has led to the formation of large and potentially hazardous moraine- dammed lakes.

Glacier inventory in northern Washington
The North Cascade Mountains in Washington State contain 756 glaciers covering a total of 103 square miles, according to a glacier inventory being compiled by hydrologists of the U.S. Geological Survey. Using aerial and ground reconnaissance, a team of USGS glacial scientists counted and described all glaciers larger than about 25 acres in northeast ...

Crevasses triggered on Pine Island Glacier by drilling through an exceptional melt layer [PDF]
The basic theory of crevasse formation suggests that crevasses initiate at or near the surface. However, due to variations in stress with depth, it has been suggested that it is possible for crevasses to initiate at depths of 10–30m.
