Glacier retreat monitoring from SAR coherence images: application to Gangotri glacier
SPIE Proceedings, 2016Retreat of glaciers is an important phenomenon to be monitored as they have a direct bearing on flow of water in rivers and rise of water level in sea. Use of Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) images in glacier dynamics studies has been gaining interest in the recent years.

Snow, Glacier, and Glacier Lake Mapping and Monitoring Using Remote Sensing Data
2021Nowadays, remote sensing (RS) technology under the space programs of the world’s leading agencies provides multispectral optical and microwave data for natural resource mapping of the Earth’s surface. Snow and glacier mapping are critical for the accurate assessment of water resource availability on the Earth’s cryosphere and to quantify the impact of ...

Glacier Mapping and Monitoring Using Multispectral Data
2014Multispectral satellite data represent the primary data source for spaceborne glacier mapping and monitoring, and remote-sensing studies have generated significant results regarding global glacier observations and understandings. In this chapter we provide an overview of the use of multispectral data and the methods typically applied in glacier studies.

Glacier change monitoring using optical satellite imagery: the case of Forni Glacier
2023Glaciers are one of the most important indicators of climate change. Monitoring their evolution is, therefore, crucial for safeguarding the Earth’s ecosystem. In this study, exploiting photogrammetric optical satellite processing techniques, we used image pairs from Ikonos-2 and Plèiades-HR satellites to generate Digital Surface ...

Summary of International Glacier Monitoring Summit
2011To answer questions about linkages between changes in glaciers and climate change—e.g., How much of the current global sea-level rise can be attributed to melting glaciers?—more precise and quantitative studies of glaciers are required. This includes systematically extending the available in situ and remote sensing data, putting together a more ...

Glacier monitoring and glacier-climate interactions in the tropical Andes: A review
Journal of South American Earth Sciences, 2017Abstract In this review, we summarized the evolution of glacier monitoring in the tropical Andes during the last few decades, particularly after the development of remote sensing and photogrammetry. Advantages and limitations of glacier mapping, applied so far, in Venezuela, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru and Bolivia are discussed in detail.
