Younger Dryas glacier advances in the tropical Andes driven by increased precipitation [PDF]
Scientific ReportsThere is currently a debate about the timing and drivers of former glacier behaviour and climate change in the tropical Andes. Using 10Be dating we determined the ages of 21 boulders on moraines in the Santa Cruz Valley, Peru (∼10°S, altitudes ~ 4100 to ~

Spatio-temporal variability in geometry and geodetic mass balance of Jostedalsbreen ice cap, Norway
Annals of Glaciology, 2023 The Jostedalsbreen ice cap is mainland Europe's largest ice cap and accommodates 20% (458 km2 in 2019) of the total glacier area of mainland Norway.

Sudden large-volume detachments of low-angle mountain glaciers – more frequent than thought?
, 2021 . The detachment of large parts of low-angle mountain glaciers resulting in massive ice–rock avalanches have so far been believed to be a unique type of event, made known to the global scientific community first for the 2002 Kolka Glacier detachment ...

The Cryosphere, 2021 . Knowledge about the occurrence and characteristics of surge-type glaciers is crucial due to the impact of surging on glacier melt and glacier related hazards. One of the "super-clusters" of surge-type glaciers is the mountains of Asia.

Multi-decadal monsoon characteristics and glacier response in High Mountain Asia
Environmental Research Letters, 2022 Glacier health across High Mountain Asia (HMA) is highly heterogeneous and strongly governed by regional climate, which is variably influenced by monsoon dynamics and the westerlies.
