Mass-balance observations and reconstruction for Haxilegen Glacier No.51, eastern Tien Shan, from 1999 to 2015

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 2018
Haxilegen Glacier No.51 (43.731°N, 84.391°E; CN5Y741C0051) is located in the Kuytun river basin, Erenharbirga range, eastern Tien Shan. This study presents the annual mass balance of Haxilegen Glacier No.51 for 7 hydrological years and uses a temperature-

A Nonlinear Statistical Model for Extracting a Climatic Signal From Glacier Mass Balance Measurements [PDF]

open access: hybridJournal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, 2018
Understanding changes in glacier mass balances is essential for investigating climate changes. However, glacier‐wide mass balances determined from geodetic observations do not provide a relevant climatic signal as they depend on the dynamic response of ...

Estimation and Analysis of Glacier Mass Balance in the Southeastern Tibetan Plateau Using TanDEM-X Bi-Static InSAR during 2000–2014 [PDF]

open access: goldAtmosphere
In recent decades, glaciers in the southeastern Tibetan Plateau (SETP) have been rapidly melting and showing a large scale of glacier mass loss. Due to the lack of large-scale, high-resolution, and high-precision observations, knowledge on the spatial ...

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

open access: yesAnnals 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.

Spatio-temporal reconstruction of winter glacier mass balance in the Alps, Scandinavia, Central Asia and western Canada (1981–2019) using climate reanalyses and machine learning

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2023
. Spatio-temporal reconstruction of winter glacier mass balance is important for assessing long-term impacts of climate change. However, high-altitude regions significantly lack reliable observations, which is limiting the calibration of glaciological ...

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

open access: yesInternational 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 ...

Glacier mass-balance estimates over High Mountain Asia from 2000 to 2021 based on ICESat-2 and NASADEM

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 2022
High Mountain Asia (HMA) glaciers are critical water reserves for montane regions, which are readily influenced by climate change. The glacier mass balance during 2000–2021 over HMA was estimated by comparing the elevations from ICESat-2 and the NASADEM.

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

open access: yesThe 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.
