Arctic glaciers comprise a small fraction of the world?s land ice area, but their ongoing mass loss currently represents a large cryospheric contribution to the sea level rise. In the Suntar-Khayata Mountains (SKMs) of northeastern Siberia, in situ measu...

Efficient water resource management in glacier- and snow-dominated basins requires accurate estimates of the snow water equivalent (SWE) in late winter and spring and melt onset timing and intensity. To understand the high spatio-temporal variability of ...

There are few studies on the climate and glacial scale in the mountains east of the Qinghai?Tibet Plateau. So, we used glacial features to determine the range of the area?s paleoglaciers and the equilibrium line altitude (ELA) of theGlA modern and paleog...

The surface of mountain glaciers is a place of accumulation of various biogenic organomineral and mineral compounds. As a result of intensive mass deglaciation of glaciers due to climate change and anthropogenic activity, this material can significantly ...

A correlation is observed between changes in the level of Earth?s seismic activity and increments of the atmospheric methane concentration over the past 40 years. Trigger mechanisms are proposed for methane emissions and glacier collapse in polar regions...
