Remote Sensing, 2016 Previous studies have shown contrasting glacier elevation and mass changes in the sub-regions of high-mountain Asia. However, the elevation changes on an individual catchment scale can be potentially influenced by supraglacial debris, ponds, lakes and ...

AGU Advances, Volume 7, Issue 5, August 2026.Abstract The evolution and connectivity of subglacial drainage systems control basal sliding and therefore modulate ice motion, yet direct observations of these systems remain limited. Here, we investigate hydraulic connectivity and its influence on ice motion at Isunnguata Sermia, a large land‐terminating outlet glacier of the Greenland Ice Sheet.

Glacier Mass Balance Modeling Using a Long Short‐Term Memory Network
Journal of Geophysical Research: Machine Learning and Computation, Volume 3, Issue 4, August 2026.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 ...

Geosciences, 2018 On the Kamchatka Peninsula, a number of glaciers are covered by thick volcanic debris, which makes their margins difficult to delineate from satellite imagery. Fortunately, high resolution, multi-temporal digital surface models (DSMs) covering the entire

Refined energy-balance modelling of a supraglacial pond, Langtang Khola, Nepal
Annals of Glaciology, 2016 Supraglacial ponds on debris-covered glaciers present a mechanism of atmosphere/glacier energy transfer that is poorly studied, and only conceptually included in mass-balance studies of debris-covered glaciers.

Frontiers in Remote Sensing, 2023 Evaluating glacial change and the subsequent water stores in high mountains is becoming increasingly necessary, and in order to do this, models need reliable and consistent glacier data.

Debris properties and mass-balance impacts on adjacent debris-covered glaciers, Mount Rainier, USA
Arctic, Antarctic, and Alpine Research, 2019 The north and east slopes of Mount Rainier, Washington, are host to three of the largest glaciers in the contiguous United States: Carbon Glacier, Winthrop Glacier, and Emmons Glacier. Each has an extensive blanket of supraglacial debris on its terminus,

Controls on Ice Cliff Distribution and Characteristics on Debris‐Covered Glaciers
Geophysical Research Letters, 2023 Ice cliff distribution plays a major role in determining the melt of debris‐covered glaciers but its controls are largely unknown. We assembled a data set of 37,537 ice cliffs and determined their characteristics across 86 debris‐covered glaciers within ...

Journal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 131, Issue 7, July 2026.Abstract Global warming is amplified in the Arctic, accelerating glacier melt and freshwater runoff. At tidewater glaciers, runoff typically enters fjords at depth and generates buoyancy‐driven circulation that enhances glacier‐ocean exchanges of energy and matter, influencing macronutrient delivery and marine primary production.

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 7, July 2026.Abstract We estimate the cosmic dust flux to Earth through the study of rare micrometeorites that preserve part of their precursor features during atmospheric entry heating, namely unmelted and scoriaceous subtypes. Combining high‐precision mass balance measurements, X‐ray computed microtomography and scanning electron microscopy, we studied mass, size
