Concentration of Trace Elements in Cryoconites of Mountain and Polar Regions of the World

Geosciences, 2023
The surface of mountain glaciers is a place of accumulation of various biogenic organomineral and mineral compounds. As a result of intensive mass deglaciation of glaciers due to climate change and anthropogenic activity, this material can significantly ...

An energy-balance model for debris-covered glaciers including heat conduction through the debris layer [PDF]

, 2010
Extensive covers of supraglacial debris are often present in glacier ablation areas, and it is essential to assess exactly how the debris affects glacier melt rates.

Glacier size changes in Kronotsky Peninsula and Alney-Chashakondzha Massif, Kamchatka Peninsula in the second half of XX century and the beginning of XXI century

Лëд и снег, 2015
As it is known from recent investigations 448 glaciers are situated on the Kamchatka Peninsula, their total area are about 905 km2 [8]. More than 80% of them are glaciers of the Sredinny Range and the Klyuchevskaya group that is explained by large ...

Glacier area changes in the Arctic and high latitudes using satellite remote sensing

Journal of Maps, 2023
Glaciers have been retreating over the last century as a result of climate change, particularly in the Arctic, causing sea levels to rise, affecting coastal communities and potentially changing global weather and climate patterns.

Snowfall decrease in recent years undermines glacier health and meltwater resources in the Northwestern Pamirs

Communications Earth & Environment
Central Asia hosts some of the world’s last relatively healthy mountain glaciers and is heavily dependent on snow and ice melt for downstream water supply, though the causes of this stable glacier state are not known.

Tracing the rapid loss of Breifonn, Norway’s southernmost glacier

Annals of Glaciology
Global climate change is causing glaciers to shrink, and in some cases, to vanish completely. Glaciers in Norway are no exception. Glacier inventories, archived imagery and topographic maps across Norway help trace the decadal evolution of individual ...

Reconstruction of Past Glacier Changes with an Ice-Flow Glacier Model: Proof of Concept and Validation

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2021
Estimations of global glacier mass changes over the course of the 20th century require automated initialization methods, allowing the reconstruction of past glacier states from limited information. In a previous study, we developed a method to initialize

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

, 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 ...

Sensitivity of a distributed temperature-radiation index melt model based on AWS observations and surface energy balance fluxes, Hurd Peninsula glaciers, Livingston Island, Antarctica [PDF]

, 2012
We use an automatic weather station and surface mass balance dataset spanning four melt seasons collected on Hurd Peninsula Glaciers, South Shetland Islands, to investigate the point surface energy balance, to determine the absolute and relative ...
