Reconciling Svalbard Glacier Mass Balance [PDF]

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2020
Since the first estimates of Svalbard-wide glacier mass balance were made in the early 2000s, there has been great progress in remote sensing and modeling of mass balance, existing field records have been extended, field records at new locations have ...

Reconstructing the annual mass balance of the Echaurren Norte glacier (Central Andes, 33.5° S) using local and regional hydroclimatic data [PDF]

The Cryosphere, 2016
Despite the great number and variety of glaciers in southern South America, in situ glacier mass-balance records are extremely scarce and glacier–climate relationships are still poorly understood in this region.

Reanalysing glacier mass balance measurement series [PDF]

The Cryosphere, 2013
Glacier-wide mass balance has been measured for more than sixty years and is widely used as an indicator of climate change and to assess the glacier contribution to runoff and sea level rise.

Atmosphere Driven Mass-Balance Sensitivity of Halji Glacier, Himalayas

Atmosphere, 2021
The COupled Snowpack and Ice surface energy and mass balance model in PYthon (COSIPY) was employed to investigate the relationship between the variability and sensitivity of the mass balance record of the Halji glacier, in the Himalayas, north-western ...

Monitoring the annual geodetic mass balance of Bordu and Sary-Tor glaciers using UAV data

Annals of Glaciology, 2023
The geodetic mass balance of a glacier corresponds to glacier-wide volume changes, converted to mass changes using density assumptions. It is typically calculated by differencing multi-temporal digital elevation models.

Two periods of geodetic glacier mass balance at Eastern Nyainqentanglha derived from multi-platform bistatic SAR interferometry

International Journal of Applied Earth Observations and Geoinformation, 2021
Bistatic SAR interferometry is an essential technique of observing glacier height changes and geodetic mass balance. Eastern Nyainqentanglha distributes the majority parts of monsoonal temperate glaciers and presented the quickest glacier mass loss rate ...

Reconstructing the mass balance of Brewster Glacier, New Zealand, using MODIS-derived glacier-wide albedo [PDF]

The Cryosphere, 2016
In New Zealand, direct measurements of mass balance are sparse due to the inaccessibility of glaciers in the Southern Alps and the logistical difficulties associated with maintaining a mass balance record.

A Bibliometric and Visualized Analysis of Remote Sensing Methods for Glacier Mass Balance Research

Remote Sensing, 2023
In recent decades, climate change has led to global warming, glacier melting, glacial lake outbursts, sea level rising, and more extreme weather, and has seriously affected human life.
