, 2017 We investigate the accuracy and robustness of one of the most common methods used in glaciology for the discretization of the $\mathfrak{p}$-Stokes equations: equal order finite elements with Galerkin Least-Squares (GLS) stabilization.

Glacier motion estimation using SAR offset-tracking procedures [PDF]
, 2002 Two image-to-image patch offset techniques for estimating feature motion between satellite synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images are discussed. Intensity tracking, based on patch intensity cross-correlation optimization, and coherence tracking, based on

Modelling regional glacier length changes over the last millennium using the Open Global Glacier Model [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2019 Abstract. A large majority of the direct observational record for glacier changes falls within the post-industrial period, associated with global glacier retreat. Given this availability of data, and significant focus in contemporary glacier modelling falling on post-industrial retreat, glacier models are typically calibrated using – and validated with

Modelling Glaciers in the HARMONIE-AROME NWP model [PDF]
Advances in Science and Research, 2017 Abstract. HARMONIE-AROME is a convection-permitting non-hydrostatic model that includes the multi-purpose SURFEX surface model. It is developed for high resolution (1–3 km) weather forecasting and applied in a number of regions in Europe and the Mediterranean. A version of HARMONIE-AROME is also under development for regional climate modelling. Here we

Journal of GlaciologyPeru hosts a significant portion of the world’s tropical glaciers, which are undergoing rapid mass loss due to climate change. Knowledge of the ice volume and bedrock topography of these glaciers is important for predicting changes in glacier dynamics ...

Modelling Dynamics of Valley Glaciers
, 2012 Ever since the Paleoproterozoic snowball Earth era, ca. 2.4 billion years ago (e.g. Hoffman & Schrag, 2000; Kirschvink, 1992), and beyond, the landscape of the planet Earth has been shaped up by the tremendous amount of scouring due to the repeated waxing and waning of ice masses.

Northern Eurasia Future Initiative (NEFI): facing the challenges and pathways of global change in the twenty-first century [PDF]
, 2017 During the past several decades, the Earth system has changed significantly, especially across Northern Eurasia. Changes in the socio-economic conditions of the larger countries in the region have also resulted in a variety of regional environmental ...

The future is Nye: an extension of the perfect plastic approximation to tidewater glaciers
Journal of Glaciology, 2016 Accurate modeling of calving glaciers relies on knowledge of many processes (ice flow, surface/submarine melting, calving, mélange interaction) and glacier-specific factors (air temperature, ocean circulation, precipitation rate, glacier geometry) that ...
