Session ID#: 12534

Session Description:
Understanding glacial processes is key to assessing the sensitivity of
glacier systems to changing climate. An important basis for large scale
assessments is a comprehensive glacier inventory. Glaciers are monitored on
different spatial and temporal scales, from extensive seasonal mass balance
studies at selected glaciers to multi-decadal repeat inventories over
entire mountain ranges. Internationally coordinated glacier monitoring aims
at combining in-situ measurements with remotely sensed data, and local
process understanding with global coverage. Bringing together studies from
the tropics to polar regions as well as from different disciplines, this
session includes presentations on both in-situ and remotely sensed
monitoring of glaciers, and related uncertainty assessments.
