The formation of valley-wall rock glaciers [PDF]
In recent years, the study of rock glaciers has increased remarkably. Substantive progress has been made, particularly in understanding the formation of rock glaciers that have developed adjacent to existing or former valley or cirque glaciers ...

Unprecedented 21st century glacier loss on Mt. Hood, Oregon, USA [PDF]
As part of the southern Cascades, Mt. Hood is the tallest and most glacierized peak in Oregon, USA. Despite alpine glaciers being one the clearest indicators of human-caused climate change, the 21st century behavior of glaciers on Mt.

Glacio-limnological interactions at lake-calving glaciers [PDF]
Iceberg calving is an efficient ablation process which introduces mechanical instability to glacier systems and can cause non-linear climatic response.

Processes of crevasse formation and the dynamics of calving glaciers : a study at Breiđamerkurjökull [PDF]
A new model proposed by Benn et al. (2006, 2007) explains the dynamics of calving glaciers based on a new sliding law and a calving criterion modified from a crevasse depth model. In this thesis three key elements of this model are tested: 1) the role
