Glacier recession since the Little Ice Age: Implications for water storage in a Rocky Mountain landscape

open access: yesArctic, Antarctic, and Alpine Research, 2019
Glaciers have significant influence on hydrology, vegetation, and wildlife in mountainous regions, and are receding globally. To quantify the impacts of sustained glacier loss, we mapped a complete set of glacier areas from the Little Ice Age (LIA) using
