Nature Communications, 2022 Factors driving ice flow variability in Greenland vary by timescale. At seasonal scale, Helheim Glacier ice velocity responds most strongly to meltwater runoff. Glacier terminus position drives velocity variability at longer time scales.

Spatio-Temporal Distribution of Supra-Glacial Ponds and Ice Cliffs on Verde Glacier, Chile
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2021 Known for their important role in locally enhancing surface melt, supraglacial ponds and ice cliffs are common features on debris-covered glaciers. We use high resolution satellite imagery to describe pond-cliff systems and surface velocity on Verde ...

Recovery of Petermann Glacier Velocity from SAR Imagery Using a Spatiotemporal Hybrid Neural Network
Applied SciencesNumerous studies have demonstrated the potential of Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) in monitoring glacier velocity. However, owing to the complex dynamics of glaciers and the variability of their surface features, velocity fields derived from even short ...

Response of a marine-terminating Greenland outlet glacier to abrupt cooling 8200 and 9300 years ago [PDF]
, 2011 Long-term records of Greenland outlet-glacier change extending beyond the satellite era can inform future predictions of Greenland Ice Sheet behavior. Of particular relevance is elucidating the Greenland Ice Sheet's response to decadal- and centennial ...

Debris Emergence Elevations and Glacier Change
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2021 Debris-covered glaciers represent potentially significant stores of freshwater in river basins throughout High Mountain Asia (HMA). Direct glacier mass balance measurements are extremely difficult to maintain on debris-covered glaciers, and optical ...

Variations in the surface velocity of an alpine cirque glacier [PDF]
Journal of Glaciology, 2018 ABSTRACTFollowing pioneering work in Norway, cirque glaciers have widely been viewed as rigidly rotating bodies. This model is incorrect for basin-filling cirque glaciers, as we have demonstrated at West Washmawapta Glacier, a small glacier in the Canadian Rocky Mountains.

Temporal fluctuations of siachen glacier velocity: a repeat pass sar interferometry based approach
, 2021 Glacier velocity, the glacier's health indicator, is an emerging research interest in global warming among the scientific community over the current decade. As per scientific reports, due to their stable and advanced nature, the glaciers of Karakoram are

Sediment motion and velocity in a glacier-fed stream [PDF]
Geomorphology, 2017 Current understanding of coarse sediment transport (e.g. threshold for motion, travel length and virtual velocity) in mountain rivers is still quite limited, and even less is known about glacial streams. However, the hydrological characteristics of these systems (strong daily discharge fluctuations, high water turbidity) pose challenges to the use of ...

Calving rates at tidewater glaciers vary strongly with ocean temperature [PDF]
, 2015 TerraSAR-X data were provided by DLR (project OCE1503), and funded by the Conoco Phillips-Lundin Northern Area Program through the CRIOS project (Calving Rates and Impact on Sea level). A.L. and S.B.
