C43B:
Innovative Methods for Quantifying Glacier Processes Posters


Session ID#: 8295

Session Description:
The innovative application of new and emerging technologies (hardware, instrumentation, software) and techniques is contributing to an improved understanding of the processes responsible for tidewater and terrestrial glacier change. New instruments are able to collect data at unprecedented spatial and temporal resolution, while hardware advances are enabling these instruments to be deployed and operate autonomously for extended periods in hazardous environments, such as the glacier bed or the glacier-ocean boundary. New processing and analysis strategies have enhanced our ability to use these data to monitor and analyze key processes such as surface melting, subglacial hydrology, and glacier flow and deformation.  We encourage submissions that utilize technology and/or innovative techniques to better understand glacial environments. These techniques include remote sensing, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles, terrestrial laser and radar scanning, time-lapse photography, photogrammetry, GPS, seismic monitoring, marine geophysics, fjord hydrography and more.
