Modelling regional glacier length changes over the last millennium using the Open Global Glacier Model [PDF]

The Cryosphere, 2020
A large majority of the direct observational record for glacier changes falls within the industrial period, from the 19th century onward, associated with global glacier retreat.

Robust reconstruction of glacier beds using transient 2D assimilation with Stokes

Journal of Glaciology, 2023
Initialising model glaciers such that they match well with their real counterparts and are thus able to make more accurate predictions is an ongoing challenge in glacier modelling.

Physically based modelling of glacier evolution under climate change in the tropical Andes [PDF]

The Cryosphere
In recent years, opportunities have opened up to develop and validate glacier models in regions that have previously been infeasible due to observation and/or computational constraints thanks to the availability of globally capable glacier evolution ...

Limited impact of climate forcing products on future glacier evolution in Scandinavia and Iceland

Journal of Glaciology, 2021
Due to climate change, worldwide glaciers are rapidly declining. The trend will continue into the future, with consequences for sea level, water availability and tourism.

Inversion of a glacier hydrology model [PDF]

Annals of Glaciology, 2016
ABSTRACTThe subglacial hydrologic system exerts strong controls on the dynamics of the overlying ice, yet the parameters that govern the evolution of this system are not widely known or observable. To gain a better understanding of these parameters, we invert a spatially averaged model of subglacial hydrology from observations of ice surface velocity ...

A physically based calving model applied to marine outlet glaciers and implications for the glacier dynamics [PDF]

, 2010
We present results from numerical ice-flow models that include calving criteria based on penetration of surface and basal crevasses, which in turn is a function of longitudinal strain rates near the glacier front.

Over-winter persistence of supraglacial lakes on the Greenland Ice Sheet: results and insights from a new model

Journal of Glaciology, 2020
We present a newly developed 1-D numerical energy-balance and phase transition supraglacial lake model: GlacierLake. GlacierLake incorporates snowfall, in situ snow and ice melt, incoming water from the surrounding catchment, ice lid formation, basal ...

A distributed energy-balance melt model of an alpine debris-covered glacier [PDF]

, 2014
Distributed energy-balance melt models have rarely been applied to glaciers with extensive supraglacial debris cover. This paper describes the development of a distributed melt model and its application to the debris-covered Miage glacier, western ...

Runoff modelling in glacierized Central Asian catchments for present-day and future climate [PDF]

, 2006
A conceptual precipitation–runoff model was applied in five glacierized catchments in Central Asia. The model, which was first developed and applied in the Alps, works on a daily time step and yields good results in the more continental climate of the ...
