Future climate warming and changes to mountain permafrost in the Bolivian Andes [PDF]
, 2016 Water resources in many of the world’s arid mountain ranges are threatened by climate change, and in parts of the South American Andes this is exacerbated by glacier recession and population growth.

Organic Carbon Fluxes on Seasonal to Decennial Timescales in Patagonia's Largest River‐Fjord System
Global Biogeochemical Cycles, Volume 39, Issue 12, December 2025.Abstract Fjord sediments are global sinks of organic carbon (OC), contributing to the long‐term storage of atmospheric CO2. Despite this recognition, the transfer and burial of OC in fjord sediments are still poorly quantified and suffer from a sampling bias toward distal environments where marine OC is dominant.

PILOT STUDIES WITH A PHOTOGRAMMETRIC GLACIER LAKE OUTBURST FLOOD EARLY WARNING SYSTEM [PDF]
The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2012 Glacier Lake Outburst Floods (GLOFs) depict an environmental risk with an increasing damage potential in many regions of the world. GLOFs are often caused by glacier margin lakes, which suddenly find a drainage path underneath the bottom of a glacier ...

Water Resources Research, Volume 61, Issue 12, December 2025.Abstract Long‐term lake ice evolution under climate change has attracted global attention. However, despite the widespread occurrence of lake shrinkage in endorheic regions worldwide, few studies have explicitly addressed its effects on lake ice regimes.

Evaluating Winter Turbulent Heat Fluxes in a Hydrodynamic‐Ice Model of the Great Lakes
Water Resources Research, Volume 61, Issue 12, December 2025.Abstract Turbulent heat fluxes are affected by and influence the temperature dynamics and ice conditions of lakes. Significant efforts have been made to develop operational hydrodynamic and ice models for large lakes such as the North American Great Lakes.
