Photogrammetry as A Research Tool for Glaciology

The Photogrammetric Record, 1997
Using a multidisciplinary project studying surging glaciers in Svalbard as a reference, this paper examines some of the ways in which photogrammetry can be used as a research tool by glaciologists. Photogrammetric compilations of two of the glaciers under study were produced from 1990 aerial photography.

The Scandinavian Drift of the Durham Coast and the General Glaciology of South-East Durham

Quarterly Journal of the Geological Society of London, 1915
I. Introduction. The present paper deals with some matters of interest among the glacial phenomena in the area of South-East Durham, between Seaham Harbour and the mouth of the Tees and the sea-coast on the east, and a line drawn north and south from ...

The glaciology of the coniston basin

Geological Journal, 1962
AbstractMuch of the lower hill‐country of the Lake District had a continuous ice‐cover during the Main Irish Sea glaciation, as probably also in the earlier glaciations, and there are many indications of ice‐action at considerable altitudes. The later phases of the Newer glaciation, however, made a great contribution to the present topography, in ...

Glaciology. Himalayan ice can fool climate studies.

Science, 2015
Many glaciers in the Himalayas are retreating, but some glaciers in the Karakoram Range, at the geographic intersection of India, Pakistan, China, and Afghanistan, appear to be on the march.

Glaciological research in the Antarctic Peninsula

Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. B, Biological Sciences, 1977
The Antarctic Peninsula is a good place for studies that take advantage of its wide range of latitude. Other worthwhile investigations are those that set in context the glacier/climate relationships and provide a framework of basic glaciological data.

The foundations of Antarctic glaciology

Archives of Natural History, 2005
Heroic treks inland by Scott, Shackleton, and Amundsen in the early 1900s demonstrated the immensity of the Antarctic ice cover. But it has taken a century to estimate its volume and elucidate its intricate dynamics. Three significant milestones in the development of Antarctic glaciology have been: the memoir Glaciology by Charles Wright and Raymond ...

XV.—Glaciology of the South Orkneys: Scottish National Antarctic Expedition

Transactions of the Royal Society of Edinburgh
The glaciation of the South Orkneys is very similar in its general character to that of Graham Land, and it will be convenient, before going on to the detailed description, to give a short summary of already published accounts of the glaciers of that ...
