This study investigates the application of a terrestrial structure from motionmulti-view stereo (SfM-MVS) approach combined with ground-penetrating radar (GPR) surveys for monitoring the surface topographic change of two permanent ice deposits in caves located in the Julian Alps (south-eastern European Alps). This method allows accurate calculation...
Dolines and shafts are common geomorphologies in karst landscapes. When affected also by glacial processes, they are considered an example of glaciokarst landform. In high alpine karst, their typical vertical shape lends itself particularly well to the formation of snow and ice accumulations that can survive the ablation season, potentially becomin...
Small glaciers of temperate mountain regions are suffering significant reduction, with ice mass losses reaching unprecedented melt rates in the very last years. On the other hand, several glacial bodies experienced increasing debris inputs since the end of the Little Ice Age, transitioning from rather clean ice to debris-covered and, sometimes, to...
Small Alpine glaciers located below the regional equilibrium line altitude are experiencing considerable ice loss and are expected to fragment into smaller glacial bodies and eventually disappear. Monitoring such glaciers by satellite remote sensing is often challenging because their size and surrounding topography are incompatible with the current...
The behaviour of mountain glaciers on decadal time scales is a useful indicator for assessing climate change. Although less monitored and studied than the ice sheet, local glaciers and ice caps along the coast of Greenland are substantial contributors to meltwater runoff and sea level rise. This study analyses the cumulative area, ice mass and Equi...
Small Alpine glaciers located below the regional equilibrium line altitude are experiencing considerable ice losses and are expected to fragment into smaller glacial bodies and eventually disappear. Monitoring such glaciers through remote sensing is often challenging because of the incompatibility between their size and the spatial resolution of sa...
