Understanding Greenland ice sheet (GrIS) hydrology is essential for evaluating response of
ice dynamics to a warming climate and future contributions to global sea level rise. Recently …

Water on the Earth's surface is an essential part of the hydrological cycle. Water resources
include surface waters, groundwater, lakes, inland waters, rivers, coastal waters, and …

Meltwater stored in ponds and crevasses can weaken and fracture ice shelves, triggering
their rapid disintegration. This ice-shelf collapse results in an increased flux of ice from …

Thermally incised meltwater channels that flow each summer across melt-prone surfaces of
the Greenland ice sheet have received little direct study. We use high-resolution WorldView …

Waterbody extraction in the high-elevated region of the Tibetan Plateau from remote sensing
imagery is an efficient way to investigate and monitor water resources. The intrusion of …

Supraglacial lakes are important to ice sheet mass balance because their development and
drainage has been linked to changes in ice flow velocity and ice shelf disintegration …

Melt and supraglacial lakes are precursors to ice shelf collapse and subsequent accelerated
ice sheet mass loss. We used data from the Landsat 8 and Sentinel-2 satellites to develop a …

Supraglacial lakes are an important component of the Greenland Ice Sheet's mass balance
and hydrology, with their drainage affecting ice dynamics. This study uses imagery from the …

Global sea-level rise is caused, in part, by more rapid ice discharge from Antarctica,
following the removal of the restraining forces of floating ice-shelves after their break-up. A …

Supraglacial lakes can have considerable impact on ice sheet mass balance and global sea-
level-rise through ice shelf fracturing and subsequent glacier speedup. In Antarctica, the …
