From global glacier modeling to catchment hydrology: bridging the gap with the WaSiM-OGGM coupling scheme

open access: yesFrontiers in Water, 2023
Coupled glacio-hydrological models have recently become a valuable method for predicting the hydrological response of catchments in mountainous regions under a changing climate.

Ice‐Dynamical Glacier Evolution Modeling—A Review

open access: yesReviews of Geophysics, 2022
Glaciers play a crucial role in the Earth System: they are important water suppliers to lower‐lying areas during hot and dry periods, and they are major contributors to the observed present‐day sea‐level rise. Glaciers can also act as a source of natural

Modeling modern glacier response to climate changes along the Andes Cordillera: A multiscale review

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2016
Here we review the literature preferentially concerned with modern glacier‐climate modeling along the Andes. We find a diverse range of modeling approaches, from empirical/statistical models to relatively complex energy balance procedures.

Modeling Glacier Elevation Change from DEM Time Series

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2015
In this study, a methodology for glacier elevation reconstruction from Digital Elevation Model (DEM) time series (tDEM) is described for modeling the evolution of glacier elevation and estimating related volume change, with focus on medium-resolution and

Ensemble Kalman Filtering for Glacier Modeling [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv.org, 2022
Working with a two-stage ice sheet model, we explore how statistical data assimilation methods can be used to improve predictions of glacier melt and relatedly, sea level rise. We find that the EnKF improves model runs initialized using incorrect initial

Compatible Finite Elements for Glacier Modeling

open access: yesComputing in science & engineering (Print), 2023
Described in this article is the first application of two mixed finite-element methods to the equations of glacier evolution under different simplifying assumptions, along with a framework for the implicit solution of the coupled velocity-thickness ...

Sub-kilometer Precipitation Datasets for Snowpack and Glacier Modeling in Alpine Terrain

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2019
apturing the spatial and temporal variability of precipitation at fine scale is necessary for high-resolution modeling of snowpack and glacier mass balance in alpine terrain.

Distributed Global Debris Thickness Estimates Reveal Debris Significantly Impacts Glacier Mass Balance

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2021
Supraglacial debris affects glacier mass balance as a thin layer enhances surface melting, while a thick layer reduces it. While many glaciers are debris‐covered, global glacier models do not account for debris because its thickness is unknown.
