Combining optical and SAR data to monitor temperate glaciers [PDF]
Monitoring temperate glaciers activity becomes more and more necessary for economical and security reasons and as an indicator of the local effects of global changes. This paper presents the beginning of a three year project which regroups four laboratories to develop and combine specific methods to extract information from optical and radar remote ...

Medvezhiy Glacier surge in 2011
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 ...

Glaciological results of the 2005 expedition to Inylchek Glacier, Central Tian Shan [PDF]
Like many other glaciers in Central Asia, Southern Inylchek glacier in the Kyrgyz Tian Shan is covered by supraglacial moraine, which drastically influences melt rates and complicates the estimation of ablation. The quantification of sub-debris melt from

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

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]
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 ...

MULTI-TEMPORAL AND MULTI-SENSOR GLACIER MONITORING [PDF]
Glaciers are subject to drastic mass loss in the last decades and their importance as an environmental and hydrological resource requires regular monitoring. Geomatics techniques are the ideal tool to survey these complex and remote areas, with different
