Accumulation Studies at a High Elevation Glacier Site in Central Karakoram
The precipitation conditions in central Karakoram are investigated on the basis of snow samples from high elevated snow pits at Urdok glacier from 2006 and the analysis of atmospheric transport trajectories in combination with the general, large scale ...

Abstract Accurate estimation of bedload fluxes is critical to understanding sediment transport processes and associated channel evolution in gravel‐bed rivers, however, traditional direct measurements using samplers are time‐consuming and complex. To overcome these limitations, new indirect methods have been developed to estimate fluxes from bedload ...

Resolving the internal and basal geometry of ice masses using imaging phase-sensitive radar
The phase-sensitive radio-echo sounder (pRES) is a powerful new instrument that can measure the depth of internal layers and the glacier bed to millimetre accuracy.

Abstract Lateral erosion of salt marshes via cliff retreat is a primary cause of global marsh loss, driven by interactions between hydrodynamics, sediment, and vegetation. While previous studies show a linear relationship between wave power and cliff retreat, models based on this relationship are largely unvalidated for short‐term (sub‐yearly) and ...

Abstract Despite the prevalence of rock glaciers in mountain environments, their ice volumes are poorly constrained. Rock glaciers persist in settings unable to support glaciers. They act as climate resilient water stores and refugia for cold‐adapted species while also posing a hazard to alpine communities. Imaging the entire internal structure of rock

Abstract Differential thaw subsidence is one of the main effects of ice‐rich permafrost degradation, especially in the discontinuous permafrost zone. Although thawing of ice‐rich permafrost can lead to thermokarst, water ponding, and major damage to critical northern infrastructure, thaw subsidence is not often monitored due to the lack of long‐term ...

Glacier Mass Balance Modeling Using a Long Short‐Term Memory Network
Abstract Glacier mass balance (MB) is a key indicator of climate change and a central driver of glacier evolution, yet most glaciers worldwide lack long‐term in situ measurements. For estimating glacier MB, data‐driven models provide a complementary alternative to traditional numerical approaches by learning empirical relationships between climate ...

Abstract Accurate hydrological prediction in alpine regions remains challenging due to complex cryospheric processes and limited observational records. Traditional hydrological models are often subject to structural uncertainty, whereas purely data‐driven deep learning (DL) models may lack physical interpretability under non‐stationary climate ...
