Glacier algae phenology on the Qaanaaq Ice Cap (Northwest Greenland)
Glacier algae are relevant factors in the darkening phenomenon of glaciers, especially at the margins of the ice sheets. This study focuses on glacier algae variation during summer seasons in the 2016–2023 period at Qaanaaq Ice Cap, NW Greenland.

Thermokarst lakes and ponds are major elements of permafrost landscapes, occupying up to 40% of the land area in some Arctic regions. Shallow lakes freeze to the bed, thus preventing permafrost thaw underneath them and limiting the length of the period ...

Phenological Changes and Driving Forces of Lake Ice in Central Asia from 2002 to 2020
Lake ice phenology is an indicator of past and present climate, it is sensitive to regional and global climate change. In the past few decades, the climate of Central Asia has changed significantly due to global warming and anthropogenic activities ...

Geographic variation and temporal trends in ice phenology in Norwegian lakes during the period 1890–2020 [PDF]
Long-term observations of ice phenology in lakes are ideal for studying climatic variation in time and space. We used a large set of observations from 1890 to 2020 of the timing of freeze-up and break-up, and the length of ice-free season, for 101 ...

River ice phenology and thickness from satellite altimetry. Potential for ice bridge road operation [PDF]
Abstract. River ice is an important component of land cryosphere. Satellite monitoring of river ice is rapidly developing scientific area with an important outcome for many climate, environmental and socio-economic applications. Radar altimetry, now widely used for monitoring of river water regime, demonstrates a good potential for observation of river

Sea-ice algal phenology in a warmer Arctic [PDF]
<p>The Arctic sea-ice decline is among the most emblematic manifestations of climate change and is occurring before we understand its ecological consequences. We investigated future changes in algal productivity combining a biogeochemical model for sympagic algae with sea-ice drivers from an ensemble of 18 CMIP5 climate models ...

Long-term ice phenology records from East Central Europe [PDF]
Abstract. A data set of annual freshwater ice phenology was compiled for the largest river (Danube) and the largest lake (Lake Balaton) in East Central Europe, extending regular river and lake ice monitoring data through the use of historical observations and documentary records dating back to 1774 AD and 1885 AD, respectively.

Satellite microwave assessment of Northern Hemisphere lake ice phenology from 2002 to 2015 [PDF]
A new automated method enabling consistent satellite assessment of seasonal lake ice phenology at 5 km resolution was developed for all lake pixels (water coverage ≥ 90 %) in the Northern Hemisphere using 36.5 GHz H-polarized brightness temperature (Tb)

An automated method to monitor lake ice phenology [PDF]
A simple method to automatically measure the date of ice‐on, the date of ice‐off, and the duration of lake ice cover is described. The presence of ice cover is detected by recording water temperature just below the ice/water interface and just above the lake bottom using moored temperature sensors.
