Representing moisture fluxes and phase changes in glacier debris cover using a reservoir approach [PDF]
, 2014 Due to the complexity of treating moisture in supraglacial debris, surface energy balance models to date have neglected moisture infiltration and phase changes in the debris layer.

Journal of Glaciology, 2021 The 2007–19 glaciological mass-balance series of Mera Glacier in the Everest Region, East Nepal, is reanalysed using the geodetic mass balance assessed by differencing two DEMs obtained from Pléiades stereo-images acquired in November 2012 and in October

Glacier mass‐balance standards
Eos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1991 Deep‐sea cores and ice cores from the late Cenozoic show that the Earth's climate changes significantly. Glacier fluctuations are but one indication of this change. Glaciers are both an active component of the environmental system, regulating mountain streamflow, and a passive one, responding to climatic change.

New long-term mass-balance series for the Swiss Alps [PDF]
, 2015 In this study we present 19 new or re-analysed series of glacier-wide seasonal mass balance for the Swiss Alps based on direct measurements. The records partly start around 1920 and continue until today.

Quaternary Science Advances, 2023 All glaciers are subject to mass fluctuations in the current context of climate change. For daily requirements like food, drink, irrigation, and the generation of hydroelectric power, these glaciers provide water to important basins including the Indus ...

Accelerated Shrinkage of Glaciers in the Altai Mountains From 2000 to 2020
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2022 Mountain glaciers are an important component of the global hydrological cycle. Existing research about glacier changes in the Altai focused on limited regions. Study about recent glacier changes in the entire Altai Mountains is still lacking.

Re-analysis of seasonal mass balance at Abramov glacier 1968–2014 [PDF]
, 2015 Abramov glacier, located in the Pamir Alay, Kyrgyzstan, is a reference glacier within the Global Terrestrial Network for Glaciers. Long-term glaciological measurements exist from 1968 to 1998 and a mass-balance monitoring programme was re-established in ...

More than a century of direct glacier mass-balance observations on Claridenfirn, Switzerland
Journal of Glaciology, 2021 Glacier mass-balance observations at seasonal resolution have been performed since 1914 at two sites on Claridenfirn, Switzerland. The measurements are the longest uninterrupted records of glacier mass balance worldwide.

The influence of changes in glacier extent and surface elevation on modeled mass balance [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2010 Glaciers are widely recognized as unique demonstration objects for climate change impacts, mostly due to the strong change of glacier length in response to small climatic changes.
