Annual mass balance is an important reflection of glacier status that is also very sensitive to climate fluctuations. However, there is no effective and universal albedo-based method for the reconstruction of annual mass balance due to the scarcity of ...

Deriving glacier mass balance from accumulation area ratio on Storglaciären, Sweden
Glacier net mass balance, bn, tends to correlate well with accumulation area ratio (AAR). A method that substitutes the long-term bn - AAR relationship by the transient relationship, derived from repeated measurements during one ablation season, is ...

Calibration and validation of glacier mass balance models typically rely on mass balance data derived from measurements at individual points, often along altitudinal gradients, thus neglecting much of the spatial variability of mass balance.

Photogrammetric reconstructions of the Aldegondabreen glacier on Svalbard from 17 archival terrestrial oblique photographs taken in 1910 and 1911 reveal a past volume of 1373.7 ± 78.2 · 106 m3; almost five times greater than its volume in 2016 ...

Reconstructing the annual mass balance of the Echaurren Norte glacier (Central Andes, 33.5° S) using local and regional hydroclimatic data [PDF]
Despite the great number and variety of glaciers in southern South America, in situ glacier mass-balance records are extremely scarce and glacier–climate relationships are still poorly understood in this region.

Temporal downscaling of glaciological mass balance using seasonal observations
Glaciological mass-balance measurements have been the backbone of internationally coordinated glacier monitoring. The resulting annual observations have been used to understand glacier reactions to climate change, and to assess both regional and global ...

Changing snow cover and the net mass balance of Storglaciaren, northern Sweden [PDF]
The spatial and temporal variability of seasonal snow cover in glacierized catchments has important implications for the net mass balance of alpine glaciers.

Monitoring the annual geodetic mass balance of Bordu and Sary-Tor glaciers using UAV data
The geodetic mass balance of a glacier corresponds to glacier-wide volume changes, converted to mass changes using density assumptions. It is typically calculated by differencing multi-temporal digital elevation models.
