Monitoring the annual geodetic mass balance of Bordu and Sary-Tor glaciers using UAV data
Annals of Glaciology, 2023 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.

Remote Sensing, 2022 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 ...

Spatio-temporal reconstruction of winter glacier mass balance in the Alps, Scandinavia, Central Asia and western Canada (1981–2019) using climate reanalyses and machine learning [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2023 Spatio-temporal reconstruction of winter glacier mass balance is important for assessing long-term impacts of climate change. However, high-altitude regions significantly lack reliable observations, which is limiting the calibration of glaciological and ...

Reconstruction of mass balance of glaciers in southern Norway back to 1948 [PDF]
Annals of Glaciology, 2007 AbstractA model using upper-air meteorological variables in the US National Centers for Environmental Prediction and US National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCEP/NCAR) re-analysis database is used to extend net balance bn back to 1948 for seven glaciers in southern Norway. The observational record of another glacier, Storbreen, began in 1948. Over

A reconstruction of annual mass balances of Austria’s glaciers from 1969 to 1998 [PDF]
Annals of Glaciology, 2011 AbstractAnnual glacier mass balances are reconstructed for 96% of the Austrian glacier-covered area (451 of 470 km2) between 1969 and 1998. The volume change derived from two complete glacier inventories (1969 and 1998) serves as the boundary condition that is aimed to be reproduced.

Journal of Glaciology, 2017 We show results from a positive degree-day (PDD) model of Greenland ice sheet (GrIS) surface mass balance (SMB), 1870–2012, forced with reanalysis data. The model includes an improved daily temperature parameterization as compared with a previous version

Annals of Glaciology, 2023 We use the apparent horizontal shift of an englacial tephra layer outcrop to calculate local glacier mass balance on Sléttjökull, a lobe of Mýrdalsjökull in Southern Iceland.

Journal of Glaciology, 2018 We present the glacier-wide summer surface mass balances determined by a detailed hydrological balance (sSMBhydro) and the quantification of the uncertainties of the calculations on the Argentière and Mer de Glace-Leschaux drainage basins, located in the

More than a century of direct glacier mass-balance observations on Claridenfirn, Switzerland
Journal of Glaciology, 2021 Glacier mass-balance observations at seasonal resolution have been performed since 1914 at two sites on Claridenfirn, Switzerland. The measurements are the longest uninterrupted records of glacier mass balance worldwide.
