We provide estimates of snow sublimation at three high-alpine sites in the Swiss Alps, integrating eddy-covariance measurements of latent heat fluxes and stable water isotope measurements.
Constructed Wetlands for bioremediation of Acid Rock Drainage in the Peruvian Andes: Implementation, monitoring and replicability
Glacial retreat and sulphide weathering create acidic rock drainage. Constructed Wetlands have been implemented to improve pH and reduce heavy metals and sulphates with potential for reuse.
Degradation of the cryosphere in the high Drakensberg Mountains under past and future climate change
The overall goal of this study is to assess the impact of climate change on past and future degradation of the cryosphere in the high Drakensberg based on an interdisciplinary approach.
Mapping glacier aerodynamic roughness for everyone
We introduce a new open access tool (Rugoblock 1.0) to map glacier aerodynamic roughness from digital elevation models
Are empirical glacier melt models robust under climate change conditions?
Empirical glacier melt modelled rely on calibration and thus may not transfer well to future climate. Here we test how different calibrated melt models transfer to future conditions.
Glacial Lake Dynamics and Outburst Flood Risk in Lachung Basin, Sikkim Himalaya Using MCDM-AHP
The ongoing climatic shift is driving glacial lake expansion and permafrost decline in the Lachung Basin, Sikkim Himalaya, increasing the risk of Glacial Lake Outburst Floods (GLOFs).
Projecting Glacier Mass Loss and recession in the Kashmir Himalaya under 21st Century Climate Change Scenarios
This study assesses the impacts of climate change on glacier mass and area highlighting severe implications for water availability, particularly during critical seasons
Impact of Black Carbon on the Surface Energy and Mass Balance of the Huaytapallana Glacier in the Junín Region, Peru
Estimate and analyze the impact of Black Carbon on the Surface Energy Balance and Surface Mass Balance of the Huaytapallana Glacier, located in the Junín department of Peru.
Assessing Aridity Changes and their linkages with Climatic Parameters in Warming Climate: Insights from Himachal Pradesh, India.
Himalayan cold deserts in Himachal Pradesh face decreasing aridity, but rising precipitation threatens fragile ecosystems, biodiversity, and local communities.
Coming from the Cold (II): Addressing the Challenges of Remote Cryosphere Fieldwork in the Andes and Antarctica from a Gender Perspective
We analyze gendered challenges in Andean and Antarctic fieldwork, highlighting key barriers and contributing to broader discussions on equity, diversity, and inclusion in cryosphere research.
