Randolph Glacier Inventory - A Dataset of Global Glacier Outlines, Version 7

open access: yes, 2023
The Randolph Glacier Inventory (RGI) is a global set of glacier outlines intended as a snapshot of the world’s glaciers outside of ice sheets. It provides a single outline for each glacier from approximately the year 2000, as well as a set of attributes ...

Glacier inventory Ötztal Alps 2017

open access: yes
The glacier inventory data set includes the shape file of glacier outlines for the Ötztal Alps (Tyrol/Austria) for the year 2017. The glacier outlines were delineated manually by editing the features of the 3rd Austrian glacier inventory (GI3) based on ...

Including debris cover effects in a distributed model of glacier ablation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Distributed glacier melt models generally assume that the glacier surface consists of bare exposed ice and snow. In reality, many glaciers are wholly or partially covered in layers of debris that tend to suppress ablation rates.

Accelerated Glacier Area Loss and Extinction of Small Glaciers in the Bhutanese Himalaya over the Past Five Decades

open access: yesRemote Sensing
Glacier inventories are critical for monitoring glacier response to climate change, providing constraints for glacier modeling studies and for assessing the impacts of glacier retreat on ecosystems and human societies. In the Bhutanese Himalaya, an up-to-

CHANGING OF THE ALTAI GLACIER SYSTEM SINCE THE MID-TWENTIETH CENTURY AND ITS RESPONSE TO THE CLIMATE WARMING IN FUTURE

open access: yesЛëд и снег, 2015
Characteristics of the Altai glacier system are analyzed on the data from Chinese and Former Soviet Union glacier inventories. Two glacier data sets, recent remote sensing data and the glacier inventories data were compared.

An assessment of basin-scale glaciological and hydrological sensitivities in the Hindu Kush–Himalaya

open access: yesAnnals of Glaciology, 2016
Glacier responses to future climate change will affect hydrology at sub-basin scales. The main goal of this study is to assess glaciological and hydrological sensitivities of sub-basins throughout the Hindu Kush-Himalaya region.

Subglacial drainage processes at a High Arctic polythermal valley glacier [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Dye-tracer experiments undertaken over two summer melt seasons at polythermal John Evans Glacier, Ellesmere Island, Canada, were designed to investigate the character of the subglacial drainage system and its evolution over a melt season. In both summers,

Remote-sensing characterization of surging glaciers in High Mountain Asia in the past two decades

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science
Glacier surge represents a special glacier behavior with abnormally high flow speeds, which can trigger catastrophic events, such as high-speed ice avalanches and glacial lake outburst floods, transforming landforms in the mountain cryosphere and ...
