A 70 year chronicle of the evolution of Echaurren Norte Glacier, Central Andes of Chile

open access: yesAnnals of Glaciology
The Echaurren Norte Glacier mass balance time series is the longest in the Southern Hemisphere, thus it is—together with the Zongo Glacier in Bolivia—a reference glacier by the World Glacier Monitoring Service.

Potential climatic transitions with profound impact on Europe [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We discuss potential transitions of six climatic subsystems with large-scale impact on Europe, sometimes denoted as tipping elements. These are the ice sheets on Greenland and West Antarctica, the Atlantic thermohaline circulation, Arctic sea ice, Alpine

MULTI-TEMPORAL AND MULTI-SENSOR GLACIER MONITORING

open access: yesThe International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2023
Abstract. 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 remote sensing platforms and sensors to choose from depending on the scale and accuracy ...

Suitability of a constant air temperature lapse rate over an Alpine glacier: testing the Greuell and Böhm model as an alternative [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Near-surface air temperature, typically measured at a height of 2 m, is the most important control on the energy exchange and the melt rate at a snow or ice surface.

Vanishing of the Glacier Yanamarey, one of the four glaciers with in situ measurements in the Cordillera Blanca, Peru

open access: yesAnnals of Glaciology
The Tropical Andes stand out as one of the mountain regions most affected by global warming. Here, we present a synthesis of recent glacier evolution in the Cordillera Blanca, based on the glaciers that have been monitored with in situ glaciological ...

Application of terrestrial‚ 'structure-from-motion' photogrammetry on a medium-size Arctic valley glacier: potential, accuracy and limitations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Terrestrial photogrammetry was the standard method for mapping high mountain terrain in the early days of mountain cartography, until it was replaced by aerial photogrammetry and airborne laser scanning.

Hydraulic impacts of glacier advance over a sediment bed [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
A sedimentary sequence of till overlying a gravel aquifer was instrumented with water-pressure transducers prior to a small, anticipated surge of the margin of the glacier Breiðamerkurjökull in Iceland.

Bioinspired Stabilization of Fluorescent Au@SiO2 Tracers for Multimodal Biological Imaging

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates a bioinspired stabilization strategy for fluorescent gold‐silica nanoparticles. Inspired by natural biosilica maturation, high‐temperature calcination transforms the silica shells, preventing dissolution in cell culture media and intracellular environments.

Glacier area changes in Novaya Zemlya from 1986–89 to 2019–21 using object-based image analysis in Google Earth Engine

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 2023
Climate change has had a significant impact on glacier recession, particularly in the Arctic, where glacier meltwater is an important contributor to global sea-level rise.
