A semi-automated, GIS-based framework for the mapping of supraglacial hydrology
Journal of Glaciology, 2023 Supraglacial drainage networks play an integral role in both glacier dynamics and run-off timing, and mapping them provides insight into their role in glacial systems.

MAPPING SVALBARD GLACIERS WITH THE CRYOWING UAS [PDF]
The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2013 Abstract. The remoteness of most Svalbard glaciers makes it difficult to perform regular in situ monitoring, especially in the melting season. Terminus areas (into the sea) and crevassed areas are in practice only accessible from the air. In this paper, first investigations on the feasibility of UAS based 3D measurements of glacier elevation is ...

Assessing ice-cliff backwasting and its contribution to total ablation of debris-covered Miage glacier, Mont Blanc massif, Italy [PDF]
, 2014 Continuous surface debris cover strongly reduces the ablation of glaciers, but high melt rates may occur at ice cliffs that are too steep to hold debris.

Vertical profile reconstruction with Pol-InSAR data of a subpolar glacier [PDF]
, 2007 The last decade has seen an increasing demand for accurate mapping and wide-coverage monitoring of glaciers and ice sheets in order to measure and predict their response to global climate change and their contribution to sea level rise.

A low-cost glacier-mapping system [PDF]
Journal of Glaciology, 2000 AbstractAn old portable 60 MHz radar has been upgraded with a new digital data-processing and -acquisition system and a new antenna construction enabling a fast and low-cost installation on a Twin Otter aircraft. Augmented by a laser altimeter and kinematic global positioning system (GPS), the system has the capability of acquiring accurate data on ...
