High-Temporal-Resolution Three-Dimensional Glacier Velocity Time Series and Their Implications for Glacier Dynamic Processes in Mt. Tomur, Tian Shan

open access: yesIEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing
High-temporal-resolution three-dimensional (3-D) glacier velocity measurements are essential for unraveling complex ice dynamics, enabling precise monitoring of climate-driven glacier response.

Reconstruction of Petermann glacier velocity time series using multi-source remote sensing images

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied Earth Observations and Geoinformation
Glacier velocity is one of the crucial parameters in the research of glacier dynamics. Synthetic aperture radar (SAR), as an active microwave sensor, represents a common method to monitor glacier velocity.

Remote-sensing characterization of surging glaciers in High Mountain Asia in the past two decades

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science
Glacier surge represents a special glacier behavior with abnormally high flow speeds, which can trigger catastrophic events, such as high-speed ice avalanches and glacial lake outburst floods, transforming landforms in the mountain cryosphere and ...

Optical Remote Sensing of Glacier Characteristics: A Review with Focus on the Himalaya

open access: yesSensors, 2008
The increased availability of remote sensing platforms with appropriate spatial and temporal resolution, global coverage and low financial costs allows for fast, semi-automated, and cost-effective estimates of changes in glacier parameters over large ...

Monitoring the physical processes driving the mass loss of Tapado Glacier, Dry Andes of Chile

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology
We summarise 15 years of field and remote monitoring of Tapado Glacier in north-central Chile (30° S). Observations include meteorological records, direct mass balance measurements, uncrewed aerial vehicle surveys and tri-stereo satellite imagery for ...

Vanished glaciers of the Swiss Alps: An inventory-based assessment from 1973 to 2016

open access: yesAnnals of Glaciology
This study presents the first nationwide assessment of vanished glaciers in Switzerland. By comparing the Swiss Glacier Inventories SGI1973 and SGI2016, we identify 1019 vanished glaciers, representing more than 40% of all glaciers inventoried in 1973 ...

Muon tomography for melting glaciers monitoring

open access: yes
This thesis presents the development of an innovative detector for muography, aimed at monitoring glacier melting. The process of glacier melting is not completely understood and is considered a crucial parameter in view of the global warming. Muography is a widely used technique, that takes advantages of the muon flux reaching Earth surface, employed ...
