چکیده
Abstract. Knowledge about the occurrence and characteristics of surge-type glaciers is crucial due to impact surging on glacier melt glacier-related hazards. One super-clusters High Mountain Asia (HMA). However, no consistent region-wide inventory in HMA exists. We present a regionally resolved based their behaviour across between 2000 2018. identify from surface velocity, elevation feature change patterns using multi-factor remote sensing approach that combines yearly ITS_LIVE velocity data, DEM differences very-high-resolution imagery (Bing Maps, Google Earth). Out ?95 000 HMA, we identified 666 show diagnostic 2018, which are mainly found Karakoram (223) Pamir regions (223). The total area covered by represents 19.5 % glacierized Randolph Glacier Inventory (RGI) V6.0 polygons HMA. Only 68 were already as “surge type” RGI V6.0. further validate 107 previously labelled “probably surge newly 491 glaciers, not reported other inventories covering finally discuss possibility self-organized criticality surges. Across all surge-affected within complexes displays significant power law dependency with length.

A Remote sensing approach for monitoring debris-covered glaciers in the high altitude Karakoram Himalayas
Debris-covered glaciers, unlike other types of glaciers, are difficult to map using visible and infrared imagery. Moreover, high altitude glaciers are difficult to map using fieldwork data due to the inaccessibility. In this study, supraglacial debris cover is mapped using Landsat TM and ETM+ images acquired from 1990 to 2010 and a digital elevation model (DEM) which is derived from Shuttle Rad...

Multispectral remote sensing images have been widely used for automated land use and land cover classification tasks. Often thematic classification is done using single date image, however in many instances a single date image is not informative enough to distinguish between different land cover types. In this paper we show how one can use multiple images, collected at different times of year (...
