Glacier velocities across the central Karakoram [PDF]
Annals of Glaciology, 2009 AbstractOptical matching of ASTER (Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer) satellite image pairs is used to determine the surface velocities of major glaciers across the central Karakoram. The ASTER images were acquired in 2006 and 2007, and cover a 60×120km region over Baltoro glacier, Pakistan, and areas to the north and west.

Influence of subglacial drainage system evolution on glacier surface motion: Haut Glacier d'Arolla, Switzerland [PDF]
, 2002 The relationship between the evolution of subglacial drainage system morphology and spatial patterns of glacier surface velocity was investigated using dye tracing experiments and ground surveying throughout the 1995 melt season at Haut Glacier d'Arolla,

A Monte-Carlo error analysis for basal sliding velocity calculations [PDF]
, 2006 Since glacier beds are mostly inaccessible, numerical inversion of the surface velocity field provides a valuable method for calculating the basal shear stress and sliding velocity. However, previous theoretical studies (limited either to planar slabs or

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

Hydrological controls on diurnal ice flow variability in valley glaciers [PDF]
, 2005 This paper uses a combination of field data and three-dimensional modeling to investigate the spatial variability in basal conditions required to induce observed fluctuations in diurnal ice velocity at Haut Glacier d'Arolla, Switzerland.

MAPPING VELOCITY OF THE POTSDAM GLACIER, EAST ANTARCTICA USING LANDSAT-8 DATA [PDF]
The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2019 Most of the glaciers have been retreating and thinning globally due to climate change. Glacier velocity is one such important parameter of glacier dynamics, which helps to understand the mass balance.

Glacier Velocity Monitoring by Maximum Likelihood Texture Tracking [PDF]
IEEE Transactions on Geoscience and Remote Sensing, 2009 The performance of a tracking algorithm considering remotely sensed data strongly depends on a correct statistical description of the data, i.e., its noise model. The objective of this paper is to introduce a new intensity tracking algorithm for synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data, considering its multiplicative speckle/noise model.
