Medvezhiy Glacier surge in 2011
Лëд и снег, 2015 The paper presents results of monitoring of the Medvezhiy Glacier state for the period from its surge of 2001 to the last pulsation of 2011. This monitoring is performed based on the photographing made from the Russian section of the International Space ...

ESTIMATION OF SHIE GLACIER SURFACE MOVEMENT USING OFFSET TRACKING TECHNIQUE WITH COSMO-SKYMED IMAGES [PDF]
ISPRS Annals of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2017 Movement is one of the most important characteristics of glaciers which can cause serious natural disasters. For this reason, monitoring this massive blocks is a crucial task.

Remote Sensing, 2021 Globally, about 250 Holocene volcanoes are either glacier-clad or have glaciers in close proximity. Interactions between volcanoes and glaciers are therefore common, and some of the most deadly (e.g., Nevado del Ruiz, 1985) and most costly (e.g ...

A REPLICABLE OPEN-SOURCE MULTI-CAMERA SYSTEM FOR LOW-COST 4D GLACIER MONITORING [PDF]
The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2023 Image-based monitoring has emerged as a prevalent technique for sensing mountain environments. Monoscopic time-lapse cameras, which rely on digital image correlation to quantify glacier motion, have limitations due to the need for a Digital Elevation ...

Decay of a long-term monitored glacier: Careser Glacier (Ortles-Cevedale, European Alps) [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2013 Abstract. The continuation of valuable, long-term glacier observation series is threatened by the accelerated mass loss which currently affects a large portion of so-called "benchmark" glaciers. In this work we present the evolution of the Careser Glacier, from the beginning of systematic observation at the end of the 19th century to its current ...

Geosciences, 2018 Since the last complete glacier mapping of Mt. Kenya in 2004, strong glacier retreat and glacier disintegration have been reported. Here, we compile and present a new glacier inventory of Mt. Kenya to document recent glacier change. Glacier area and mass

Correlations between glacier properties: finding appropriate parameters for global glacier monitoring [PDF]
Journal of Glaciology, 1999 AbstractTo develop new strategies for global mass-balance monitoring, data for the period 1961–90 have been compiled for 80 glaciers with a variety of mass-balance and morphological parameters. This dataset is significantly larger than that used in previous studies.

GlacioTools: Streamlining Glacier Feature Monitoring and Reporting in QGIS [PDF]
The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information SciencesMountain glaciers are highly sensitive to climate change, having lost nearly half their surface area and two-thirds of their volume in the European Alps since 1850.

A new index of glacier area change: a tool for glacier monitoring [PDF]
Journal of Glaciology, 2009 AbstractSince the mid-19th century, most glaciers have been losing area and volume. This loss of area has not been homogeneous in time and space, and direct observations are sparse, making regional and global estimates of glacier change difficult.
