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 ...

Evaluating Glacier Volume Changes since the Little Ice Age Maximum and Consequences for Stream Flow by Integrating Models of Glacier Flow and Hydrology in the Cordillera Blanca, Peruvian Andes

open access: yesWater, 2018
Evaluating the historical contribution of the volume loss of ice to stream flow based on reconstructed volume changes through the Little Ice Age (LIA) can be directly related to the understanding of glacier-hydrology in the current epoch of rapid glacier

Regional and global volumes of glaciers derived from statistical upscaling of glacier inventory data [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, 2010
Very few global‐scale ice volume estimates are available for mountain glaciers and ice caps, although such estimates are crucial for any attempts to project their contribution to sea level rise in the future. We present a statistical method for deriving regional and global ice volumes from regional glacier area distributions and volume area scaling ...

Spatial differences of ice volume across High Mountain Asia

open access: yesAdvances in Climate Change Research, 2023
Advanced knowledge of glacier ice volume is vital for water resource assessment. Previous studies have focused on the estimation of ice volume, but the quantitative understanding of the spatial variability of ice volume across High Mountain regions is ...

Decadal evolution of a very small heavily debris-covered glacier in an Alpine permafrost environment

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 2016
Glacier response to climate forcing can be heterogeneous and complex, depending on glacier system characteristics. This article presents the decadal evolution of the Tsarmine Glacier (Swiss Alps), a very small and heavily debris-covered cirque glacier ...

New estimate of volume of glaciers worldwide [PDF]

open access: yesEos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 2012
As climate warms, melting mountain glaciers are likely to contribute significantly to sea level rise over the next decades, but how much they will contribute remains uncertain, as the total volume of Earth's mountain glaciers is not precisely known. Some studies have estimated the total volume of water stored in glaciers worldwide using statistical ...

Density assumptions for converting geodetic glacier volume change to mass change

open access: yes, 2013
. The geodetic method is widely used for assessing changes in the mass balance of mountain glaciers. However, comparison of repeated digital elevation models only provides a glacier volume change that must be converted to a change in mass using a density

Interpretation of Volume and Flux Changes of the Laurichard Rock Glacier Between 1952 and 2019, French Alps

open access: yes, 2021
Rock glaciers are creeping bodies of ice and rock that account for an important part of the mountain cryosphere. In this study, we investigated long‐term changes of the Laurichard rock glacier (French Alps), to understand how this rock glacier is ...

Changes of Marukh Glacier from 1945 to 2011

open access: yesЛëд и снег, 2015
Field studies have been carried out in summer 2011 at Marukh Glacier located in western part of the Northern Caucasus. The studies included ground-based radio-echo sounding measurements at a frequency of 20 MHz and glacier surface elevation survey using ...
