Downwasting and supraglacial lake evolution on the debris-covered Ngozumpa Glacier, Khumbu Himal, Nepal [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In recent decades, the downwasting of several debris-covered glaciers in the Himalaya has led to the formation of large and potentially hazardous moraine- dammed lakes.

ESTIMATION OF SHIE GLACIER SURFACE MOVEMENT USING OFFSET TRACKING TECHNIQUE WITH COSMO-SKYMED IMAGES [PDF]

open access: yesISPRS 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.

(Appendix 2) Overview on available length change and mass balance data series of glaciers up to the year 2005

open access: yes, 2008
For information on glacier fluctuations (front variations, mass balance, special events, etc.) please send an email with your data request including WGMS_ID and/or general information on the corresponding glaciers (glacier name, political unit, location,

Intra-annual and intra-seasonal flow dynamics of a High Arctic polythermal valley glacier [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Measurements of surface dynamics on polythermal John Evans Glacier, Nunavut, Canada, over two winter periods and every 7-10 days throughout two melt seasons (June-July 2000, 2001) provide new insight into spatio-temporal patterns of High Arctic glacier ...

Glaciological results of the 2005 expedition to Inylchek Glacier, Central Tian Shan [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
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

Closely monitored glaciers

open access: yes, 2020
Glaciers in tropical and subtropical regions are characterised by specific functions. Their response to global warming cannot be extrapolated from the observations of mid-latitude or polar latitude glaciers alone.

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.

GlacioTools: Streamlining Glacier Feature Monitoring and Reporting in QGIS [PDF]

open access: yesThe International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences
Mountain 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.

Monitoring of Glacier Surfaces with Photogrammetry, a Case Study of the Triglav Glacier

open access: yesActa geographica Slovenica, 2000
The relatively rapid changes of the shape and volume of glaciers that have been recorded in the last few decades can be monitored and recorded in different ways. Photogrammetry, the science of obtaining metrical data about the environment from photographs, is especially appropriate for this task.
