Acoustic recording under landfast sea ice near glacier

<p>A hydrophone was deployed in February 2022 underneath landfast sea ice in Tempelfjorden, Svalbard. The hydrophone was located approximately 2 km from the glacier. Several major events were recorded by vibrations sensors on the ice next to the hydrophone. Source triangulation identified that the events were coming from the glacier wall. This dataset includes the recording of one of the events (with the event starting at about 0:14), and a sample thereof.</p>

A new inventory of High Mountain Asia surging glaciers derived from multiple elevation datasets since the 1970s

<p>Glacier surging is an unusual undulation instability of ice flow and complete surging glacier inventories are important for regional mass balance studies and assessing glacier-related hazards. Glacier surge events in High Mountain Asia (HMA) are widely reported. Through the estimated elevation changes from multiple DEMs sources that acquired from 1970s to 2020, and morphologic changes from 1986 to 2021, here we present a new surging glacier inventory across HMA. The inventory has incorporated 890 surging and 336 surge-like glaciers, each glacier is assigned with indicators of surging feature and surge possibility. Compared to previous surging glacier inventory in HMA, our inventory is theoretically more complete because of the much longer observation period. This data repository contains the surging glacier inventory and glacier elevation change maps. The inventory is stored in the format of GeoPackage (.gpkg) and ESRI Shapefile format (.shp), which is represented by glacier polygon (from GAMDAM2) or surface point with geometric attributes. The multi-temporal elevation change maps of identified surging glaciers were divided into 1&times;1&deg; tiles, storing in the format of GeoTiff(*.tif). Detailed description of the dataset including the file contents and attributes information can be found in the metadata file (README.txt).</p>

Using Biodiversity Data to Assess Species-Habitat Relationships in Glacier National Park, Montana

Biodiversity surveys are becoming increasingly popular. However, standard analysis techniques for these data have not yet been developed. This paper explores the use of multivariate ordination techniques for assessing species-habitat relationships using biodiversity data. The research was conducted in Glacier National Park, Montana, and birds and butterflies were chosen as the taxonomic groups of study. Biodiversity assessment sites were established through a range of habitats and monitored from 1987 through 1989. Presence/absence sampling over the total number of sampling sites was used to classify species commonness and rarity. Approximately 86% of the historically recorded butterflies and 70% of the historically recorded bird species have been observed in the 3 yr of sampling. During the 3 yr of this study there was a striking continuity of species richness per site. There was also a striking overlap between the sites that support high species diversity and sites that support rare species. Principal components analysis and cluster analysis worked well in discerning species-habitat relationships. Elevation, structural diversity of the site, and moisture were the major factors explaining species distributions. A chi-square analysis also provided some insights into species-habitat relationships, showing birds were more habitat specific than butterflies. Habitat diversity analyses demonstrated a positive but non-significant correlation between remotely sense spectral-class diversity of a site and species richness for both birds and butterflies. Aspect, slope and elevation diversity had a negative or negligible relationship with species richness.

Glacier snow depth measurements, McMurdo Dry Valleys, Antarctica (1993-2023, ongoing)

As part of the Long Term Ecological Research (LTER) project in the McMurdo Dry Valleys of Antarctica, a systematic sampling program has been undertaken to monitor glacial mass balance and meltwater flow. This data package includes snow depth measurements to the surface of six glaciers (Canada, Commonwealth, Hughes, Suess, Howard, and Taylor) in Taylor Valley and one glacier (Adams) in Miers Valley, all of which are located in the McMurdo Dry Valleys of Antarctica. Most measurements began during the 93-94 field season. Adams measurements were established during the 14-15 field season. Measurements are ongoing except at Hughes and Suess Glaciers where monitoring ceased following the 08-09 field season. Monitoring the changes in these measurements over time provides a record of mass balance, and aids in determining the role of glaciers in the polar hydrologic cycle.

Snowpit chemistry from Canada, Commonwealth, and Rhone Glaciers, McMurdo Dry Valleys, Antarctica during the 2000-2001 austral summer

To examine temporal and spatial variability in snow chemistry during the 2000-2001 austral summer, snow samples were collected from the accumulation zones of Canada, Commonwealth, and Rhone Glaciers, located in Taylor Valley in the McMurdo Dry Valleys region of Antarctica. Snowpits were excavated to a depth of 2 meters at each location and samples were collected using a depth interval of 3 cm utilizing clean sampling techniques. Snow density was measured in the field at the time of sample collection. Samples were analyzed for major ions in the Crary Lab at McMurdo Station.

Shapefiles for glacier, stream channel, and watershed boundaries in the McMurdo Dry Valleys, Antarctica (2023)

This data package includes shapefiles for selected glacier, stream watershed, and stream channel boundaries in the McMurdo Dry Valleys region of Antarctica. A combination of satellite imagery and digital elevation models were used to delineate watershed and stream channel outlines, while glaciers were outlined by hand. Watershed boundaries provide an estimate of the overall topographic contributing area for each stream in Fryxell Basin, whereas stream channel boundaries provide a topographic area estimate for stream channel, beyond the wetted margin, for each stream.

Shapefiles reporting the boundaries of glaciers analyzed by applying a multifractal approach

<p>We recently investigated the multifractal properties of the perimeters of the Lombardy glaciers in the Italian Alps. We characterized the area and perimeter distributions of the population of&nbsp;glaciers and we showed that the distribution of perimeters exhibits a marked peak, not present in the distribution of areas. We investigated&nbsp;the multifractal spectra of perimeters and we showed that&nbsp;their features are strongly correlated with the area of the glaciers.</p> <p>Here are reported the shapefiles of the boundaries of glaciers of the Lombardia region measured in 2003, 2007, and 2012 that were used for this work.</p>

Debris thickness measurements from various glaciers in the Western Alps

<p>Debris thickness measurements collected from seven debris-covered glaciers in Switzerland and Italy in 2019 and 2020. Only data from Miage Glacier was measured in September 2020 all others were measured in August and September in 2019. The RGI Glacier ID is the first cell in each sheet. Location data is reported in decimal degrees. All debris thickness data is in centimeters and elevation data is in meters.</p> <p>Debris was measured by digging through the debris and then directly measuring the debris thickness with a measuring stick. The mean thickness is the most likely average thickness based on 3 measurements within a ~4x4m area. The &#39;min&#39; measurement is the minimum debris thickness. The &#39;max&#39; measurement is the absolute maximum estimate of the mean debris thickness, meaning that this estimate is that absolute maximum of the mean debris thickness. This value is determined based on the thickness of the largest non-outlier debris thickness in the area. Three measurements were taken for the mean value and 1 each for the max/min bounds. To save time, sites with mean thicknesses larger than 20 cm the extreme bounds are based on the minimum and maximum measurements within the single hole dug.&nbsp; Elevation data are based on a hand held GPS and this value was only recorded for some debris thickness measurements.</p>

UAV surveys of the studied area were performed to obtain Digital Elevation Models (DEMs) and allow for detailed comparative studies in the future.</p><p>Test site 1 was very close to the glacier (undergoes weathering for 1–2 years), site 2 was in the zone c. 10 years old, site 3 was in the zone c. 50–51 years old, site 4 was in the zone c. 105–106 years old, and the last one (site 5) was on the LIA moraines, where the duration of weathering is c. 167–172 years. The sites were located on bedrock or boulders embedded in the moraines with distinct traces of glacial abrasion, allowing us to infer that older weathering rind (developed before glacial accumulation) has been eroded. The sites were selected based on their age, homogenous petrography, accessibility, and suitability for micro-roughness measurements. Within each test site, we selected ten specific rock surfaces (c. 100 cm2 each), with clear signs of glacial abrasion, for the measurements of micro-roughness, Schmidt hammer rebound (rock strength), and spectral reflectance. &nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p>
