This study presents the first detailed rock glacier inventory of the Spiti Basin, highlighting their distribution, morphometry, and climatic influences using high-resolution satellite imagery from 202
The response of high Andean wetlands to changes in mountain hydrology
Spatial-temporal dynamics of high mountain wetland extents can help us to better understand changing hydrological processes in high-mountain regions.
InSAR-based Modelling and Monitoring of Permafrost-induced Deformation in Indian Himalayas
Monitoring of permafrost degradation in Indian Himalayas using InSAR, revealing seasonal freeze-thaw and annual deformation trends, showing ongoing changes and need for long term monitoring.
Hills in Peril: Unplanned Urban Growth and the Escalating Slope Failure Risk in Shimla
Shimla’s unplanned urban growth and deforestation increase landslide risks. This study uses geospatial data and highlights the need for sustainable planning to mitigate the disasters.
Impact of spectral resolution on automated surface classification at Mendenhall glacier, Alaska
We assess the sensitivity of automated glacier surface classification to spectral resolution using hyperspectral imagery from Mendenhall Glacier, Alaska
Glacier-related mass movements and their impact on the landscape: examples from the Chilean Central Andes
Five glacier-related mass movements in the Chilean Central Andes during the last century are showcased. Based on field and remote-sensed geomorphologic evidence, their landscape impact is discussed.
Modelling the disappearing glaciers of Western Austria
Modeling shows with +1.5°C, 2.7% of Ötztal/Stubaital glacier volume remains by 2100. With +2°C, this volume is reached 30 years earlier, leading to near-total loss by 2100.
Integrating hydrological, sediment dynamics and geomorphic assessments for sustainable floodplain management in the Camarones River Basin (Colombia)
This study examines sediment dynamics in tropical regions, focusing on upstream and downstream implications for floodplain management and climate change impacts on ecosystems.
Integrating Drone-based Ground Penetrating Radar and Thermal Infrared Imaging to Study Debris-Covered Glaciers
This presentation will discuss a novel technique for measuring glacier debris thickness using the combination of drone-based ground-penetrating radar and thermal infrared imaging.
Wood in Motion: understanding wood dynamics in disturbed catchments
Large disturbances trigger wood recruitment, impacting river dynamics and infrastructure. This study highlights the importance of integrating wood into river management plans.
