Geodetic glacier mass loss in the Canadian Arctic Archipelago: Photogrammetric analysis of historical aerial photographs (1958–2023)

Journal of Glaciology
The Canadian Arctic Archipelago constitutes a primary source of contemporary sea-level rise from glaciers and ice caps, yet glacier-scale, multi-decadal records on Baffin and Bylot Islands remain limited.

Favorable climatic regime for maintaining the present-day geometry of the Gregoriev Glacier, Inner Tien Shan [PDF]

The Cryosphere, 2011
We conducted 2 yr (2005–2007) of in situ meteorological and glaciological observations on the Gregoriev Glacier, a flat-top glacier within the Inner Tien Shan, Kyrgyzstan. Relative carrier-phase GPS surveys reveal a vertical lowering at the summit of the

Mass balance of Trambau Glacier, Rolwaling region, Nepal Himalaya: in-situ observations, long-term reconstruction and mass-balance sensitivity

Journal of Glaciology, 2019
We conducted a mass-balance study of debris-free Trambau Glacier in the Rolwaling region, Nepal Himalaya, which is accessible to 6000 m a.s.l., to better understand mass-balance processes and the effect of precipitation on these processes on high ...

Intra-annual and intra-seasonal flow dynamics of a High Arctic polythermal valley glacier [PDF]

, 2002
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 ...

Spatiotemporal Evolution of Glacier Mass Balance and Runoff Response in a High Mountain Basin Under Climate Change

Atmosphere
Under the context of global warming, accelerated glacier melting poses a severe threat to regional water security, necessitating systematic quantification of the spatiotemporal evolution of glacier mass balance (GMB) and its impacts on runoff. This study

Surface Albedo Variation and Its Influencing Factors over Dongkemadi Glacier, Central Tibetan Plateau

Advances in Meteorology, 2015
Glacier albedo plays a critical role in surface-atmosphere energy exchange, the variability of which influences glacier mass balance as well as water resources.

First in situ record of decadal glacier mass balance (2003–2014) from the Bhutan Himalaya

Annals of Glaciology, 2016
This study presents the first decadal mass-balance record of a small debris-free glacier in the Bhutan Himalaya, where few in situ measurements have been reported to date. Since 2003 we have measured the mass balance of Gangju La glacier, which covers an

Meteorology and surface energy fluxes in the 2005–2007 ablation seasons at the Miage debris-covered glacier, Mont Blanc Massif, Italian Alps [PDF]

, 2010
During the 2005–2007 June–September ablation seasons, meteorological conditions were recorded on the lower and upper parts of the debris‐covered ablation zone of Miage Glacier, Italy. In 2005, debris temperature and subdebris ice melt were also monitored

Unprecedented 2025 glacier mass loss in Pamir

Advances in Climate Change Research
Recent extreme heat events have caused exceptional glacier mass loss worldwide. However, their impact on Pamir–Karakoram glaciers with anomalously stable or slightly positive mass balances remains unclear. Based on glaciological mass balance observations,

Glacier Mass Changes of Lake-Terminating Grey and Tyndall Glaciers at the Southern Patagonia Icefield Derived From Geodetic Observations and Energy and Mass Balance Modeling

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2018
In this study we demonstrate how energy and mass fluxes vary in space and time for Grey and Tyndall glaciers at the Southern Patagonia Icefield (SPI).
