Variability of Glacier Velocity and the Influencing Factors in the Muztag-Kongur Mountains, Eastern Pamir Plateau

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2023
Glacier velocity is the key to understanding the nature of glaciers. Its variation plays an important role in glacier dynamics, mass balance, and climate change.

Apparent Short-Term Glacier Velocity Variations [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 1985
Abstract In connection with a glacier-hydrological project at a sub-polar glacier in West Greenland, short-term glacier velocity variations were measured. Both the horizontal and the vertical velocity components showed distinct diurnal variations.

Temporal glacier velocity variations and their controlling factors in the Nathorstbreen glacier system, Svalbard

open access: yesEgyptian Journal of Remote Sensing and Space Sciences
Temporal variations in glacier velocity are not only essential to understand glacier dynamics but also to predict glacier hazards. Therefore, in the current study, the continuous glacier velocities were estimated from 2014 to 2023 in the Nathorstbreen ...

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.

STEREO-PHOTOGRAMMETRIC MEASUREMENT OF SPATIO-TEMPORAL VELOCITY FIELDS AT LANGE GLACIER, KING GEORGE ISLAND [PDF]

open access: yesISPRS Annals of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2020
A network consisting of six cameras was set up on both sides of Lange Glacier on King George Island, Antarctica, for a period of two years to monitor changes in the glacier’s motion behaviour.

The Application of GPS in Glacier Flow Velocity: A Case Study of Qiyi Glacier

open access: yesApplied Mechanics and Materials, 2011
Surface flow velocity is a key parameter of glacier kinetic theories study. With the help of GPS, glacier surface flow velocity research improved convenient and accurate. Therefore, this paper is committed to acquire the condition of surface flow velocity of Qiyi Glacier during 2009 to 2010 based on GPS data, optical remote sensing images and ...

Creep-Velocity Bounds and Glacier-Flow Problems [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 1967
Abstract A general result due to Martin can be used to find upper and lower bounds on velocities in steady-creep problems. This method can be applied to glacier flow if ice can be assumed to satisfy a powerlaw stress–strain-rate relation.

Distinct patterns of seasonal Greenland glacier velocity. [PDF]

open access: yesGeophys Res Lett, 2014
AbstractPredicting Greenland Ice Sheet mass loss due to ice dynamics requires a complete understanding of spatiotemporal velocity fluctuations and related control mechanisms. We present a 5 year record of seasonal velocity measurements for 55 marine‐terminating glaciers distributed around the ice sheet margin, along with ice‐front position and runoff ...
