Globally scalable glacier mapping by deep learning matches expert delineation accuracy [PDF]

Nature Communications
Accurate global glacier mapping is critical for understanding climate change impacts. Despite its importance, automated glacier mapping at a global scale remains largely unexplored.

Updating glacier inventories on the periphery of Antarctica and Greenland using multi-source data

Annals of Glaciology, 2023
Melting and calving of glaciers and ice caps in Antarctica and Greenland could potentially contribute significantly to global sea level rise. Updates to existing outlines that provide critical glacier baseline information in both regions could help in ...

A Progressive Learning Strategy for Large-Scale Glacier Mapping

IEEE Access, 2022
In recent years, the worldwide temperature increase has resulted in rapid deglaciation and a higher risk of glacier-related natural hazards such as flooding and debris flow.

Classifying disequilibrium of small mountain glaciers from patterns of surface elevation change distributions

Journal of Glaciology, 2022
The overall trend of rapid retreat of Alpine glaciers contains considerable variability of responses at the scale of individual glaciers. As a step towards a regional assessment of glacier state that allows a detailed differentiation of single glaciers ...

Recent (2018–2021) glaciological, hydrological and geomorphological landscape changes of Hailuogou Glacier tongue, southeastern Tibetan Plateau

Journal of Maps, 2023
Glaciers in the Tibetan Plateau are melting at an unprecedented recently rate in the context of global warming. Time-sequenced landform mapping for the Hailuogou Glacier, a partly debris-covered glacier in the southeastern Tibetan Plateau, shows the ...

GlacierNet2: A hybrid Multi-Model learning architecture for alpine glacier mapping

International Journal of Applied Earth Observations and Geoinformation, 2022
In recent decades, climate change has significantly affected glacier dynamics, resulting in mass loss and an increased risk of glacier-related hazards including supraglacial and proglacial lake development, as well as catastrophic outburst flooding ...

Mapping Glacier Basal Sliding Applying Machine Learning

Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, 2023
AbstractDuring the RESOLVE project (“High‐resolution imaging in subsurface geophysics: development of a multi‐instrument platform for interdisciplinary research”), continuous surface displacement and seismic array observations were obtained on Glacier d’Argentière in the French Alps for 35 days in May 2018.

Halving of Swiss glacier volume since 1931 observed from terrestrial image photogrammetry [PDF]

The Cryosphere, 2022
The monitoring of glaciers in Switzerland has a long tradition, yet glacier changes during the 20th century are only known through sparse observations.

A new global gridded glacier dataset based on the Randolph Glacier Inventory version 6.0

Journal of Glaciology, 2021
Gridded glacier datasets are essential for various glaciological and climatological research because they link glacier cover with the corresponding gridded meteorological variables.
