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 ...

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 ...

Halving of Swiss glacier volume since 1931 observed from terrestrial image photogrammetry [PDF]
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
Gridded glacier datasets are essential for various glaciological and climatological research because they link glacier cover with the corresponding gridded meteorological variables.

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 ...

94 GHz Radar Backscatter Characteristics of Alpine Glacier Ice
Measuring the radar backscatter characteristics of glacier ice at different frequencies and incidence angles is fundamental to predicting the glacier mapping performance of a sensor. However, such measurements at 94 GHz do not exist.

Spatio-temporal variability in geometry and geodetic mass balance of Jostedalsbreen ice cap, Norway
The Jostedalsbreen ice cap is mainland Europe's largest ice cap and accommodates 20% (458 km2 in 2019) of the total glacier area of mainland Norway.

Sustained retreat of the Pine Island Glacier [PDF]
We use satellite observations to show that, between 1992 and 2011, the Pine Island Glacier hinge line retreated at a rate of 0.95 ± 0.09 km yr−1 despite a progressive steepening and shoaling of the glacier surface and bedrock slopes, respectively, which ...

Glacier classification from Sentinel-2 imagery using spatial-spectral attention convolutional model
Glaciers are critical components of the cryosphere and most sources of water. The Sentinel-2 imagery provides an efficient and cost-effective way for the production of inventories of glaciers.
