THE PURPOSE OF GLACIER MAPPING
Canadian Journal of Earth Sciences, 1966 As an introduction to the Symposium on Glacier Mapping and for the purpose of providing a basis for further discussion, the requirements in various types of glacier maps are differentiated. Most maps of glaciers are not made specifically for glaciologists but as part of a general geographical survey program.

SOME FUNDAMENTAL CONSIDERATIONS ON GLACIER MAPPING
Canadian Journal of Earth Sciences, 1966 Five glacier maps at scales of 1:5 000 and 1:10 000 were produced by the Photogrammetric Research Section of the National Research Council and the Axel Heiberg Island Expedition of McGill University for use in glaciological research in the Canadian Arctic. After general comments on the need for and scope of glacier mapping, the authors discuss in some

Glacier Mapping and Monitoring Using Multispectral Data
, 2014 Multispectral satellite data represent the primary data source for spaceborne glacier mapping and monitoring, and remote-sensing studies have generated significant results regarding global glacier observations and understandings. In this chapter we provide an overview of the use of multispectral data and the methods typically applied in glacier studies.

Mapping vanishing glaciers in Vorarlberg, Austria
Annals of GlaciologyWe assess ongoing regional glacier loss in the Austrian state of Vorarlberg using a set of manually mapped glacier outlines for 2017, 2020, 2022 and 2023. Vorarlberg has lost about half of its glacierized area since a previous inventory in the mid-2000s.

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 ...

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.

Debris cover and surface melt at a temperate maritime alpine glacier: Franz Josef Glacier, New Zealand [PDF]
, 2012 Melt rates on glaciers are strongly influenced by the presence of supraglacial debris, which can either enhance or reduce ablation relative to bare ice.
