Comparison of Hydrological Patterns between Glacier-Fed and Non-Glacier-Fed Lakes on the Southeastern Tibetan Plateau

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2021
Lakes on the Tibetan Plateau have experienced variations over the last several decades, and the delineation of lake dynamics is favorable for the regional water cycle and can serve as important information for plateau environmental research.

Thinning of the Monte Perdido Glacier in the Spanish Pyrenees since 1981 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Producción CientíficaThis paper analyzes the evolution of the Monte Perdido Glacier, the third largest glacier in the Pyrenees, from 1981 to the present. We assessed the evolution of the glacier's surface area by analysis of aerial photographs from 1981,

Global glacier volume projections under high-end climate change scenarios

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2019
. The Paris agreement aims to hold global warming to well below 2 ∘C and to pursue efforts to limit it to 1.5 ∘C relative to the pre-industrial period. Recent estimates based on population growth and intended carbon emissions from participant countries ...

Mid-Term Monitoring of Glacier’s Variations with UAVs: The Example of the Belvedere Glacier

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2021
Recently, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) have opened up unparalleled opportunities for alpine glacier monitoring, as they allow for reconstructing extensive and high-resolution 3D models.

Melt regimes, internal stratigraphy, and flow dynamics of three glaciers in the Alaska Range [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We used ground-penetrating radar (GPR), GPS and glaciochemistry to evaluate melt regimes and ice depths, important variables for mass-balance and ice-volume studies, of Upper Yentna Glacier, Upper Kahiltna Glacier and the Mount Hunter ice divide, Alaska.

Ocean-induced melt volume directly paces ice loss from Pine Island Glacier

open access: yesScience Advances, 2021
Glacier response to ice-shelf thinning is driven largely by the total melt rather than its spatial distribution.

Modeling the Response of the Langtang Glacier and the Hintereisferner to a Changing Climate Since the Little Ice Age

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2019
This study aims at developing and applying a spatially-distributed coupled glacier mass balance and ice-flow model to attribute the response of glaciers to natural and anthropogenic climate change.

Changes in glacier volume on Mt. Gongga, southeastern Tibetan Plateau, based on the analysis of multi-temporal DEMs from 1966 to 2015

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 2019
The accelerated retreat of glaciers and the reduction of glacier ice reserves caused by climate change can significantly affect regional water resources and hydrological cycles.

How sensitive are mountain glaciers to climate change? Insights from a block model

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 2018
Simple models of glacier volume evolution are important in understanding features of glacier response to climate change, due to the scarcity of data adequate for running more complex models on a global scale.

Radioglaciological studies on Hurd Peninsula glaciers, Livingston Island, Antarctica [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We present the results of several radio-echo sounding surveys carried out on Johnsons and Hurd Glaciers, Livingston Island, Antarctica, between the 1999/2000 and 2004/05 austral summer campaigns, which included both radar profiling and common-midpoint ...
