Jökulhlaups: their associated landforms and landscape impacts

, 2011
Glacial outburst floods also known as jökulhlaups are important features connected with glaciers globally. They may induce catastrophic floods as well as new landforms.

Characteristics and impacts of jökulhlaups (glacial outburst floods) from Kverkfjöll, Iceland

, 2004
Jökulhlaups, or glacier outburst floods, have occurred during the Holocene from the northern margin of the Vatnajökull ice cap, Iceland. Relatively little is known about the origin, magnitude and frequency of these jökulhlaups.

Evolution of glacial lakes and southernmost GLOFs in the Cordillera Darwin and Cloue Icefields (Tierra del Fuego) between 1945–2024

The rapid retreat of mountain glaciers due to climate change has led to the expansion of glacial lakes, which can produce sudden glacial lake outburst floods (GLOFs) due to the failure of unstable moraine or glacier dams, in some cases triggering a ...

160 Glacial Lake Outburst Floods (GLOFs) Across the Tropical Andes Since the Little Ice Age [PDF]

Global and Planetary Change, 2022
Assessing the extent to which glacial lake outburst floods (GLOFs) are increasing in frequency in modern times and whether their incidence is driven by anthropogenic climate change requires historical context.

Glacial Lake Outburst Floods (GLOFs) in the Cordillera Huayhuash, Peru: Historic Events and Current Susceptibility [PDF]

Water (Switzerland), 2020
The aim of this paper is to create a glacial lake inventory for the Cordillera Huayhuash in Peru and to evaluate the susceptibility of lakes to the generation of glacial lake outburst floods (GLOFs).
