The Andes Cordillera contains the most diverse cryosphere on Earth, including extensive
areas covered by seasonal snow, numerous tropical and extratropical glaciers, and many …

The prevalence and increased frequency of high-magnitude Glacial Lake Outburst Floods
(GLOFs) in the Chilean and Argentinean Andes suggests this region will be prone to similar …

Observing changes in Earth surface topography is crucial for many Earth science
disciplines. Documenting these changes over several decades at regional to global scale …

We present a satellite-derived glacier inventory for the whole Patagonian Andes south of 45.
5° S and Tierra del Fuego including recent changes. Landsat TM/ETM+ and OLI satellite …

Glaciers and the periglacial environment in Argentina have been protected by the Law since
2010. This legislation required the development of the first National Glacier Inventory (NGI) …

A full understanding of glacier changes in the Patagonian Andes over decadal to century
time-scales is presently limited by a lack of detailed and appropriate long-term observations …

Ice aprons are poorly studied and not well-defined thin ice bodies adhering to high altitude
steep rock faces, but are present in most Alpine-type high mountain environments …

The valleys in the northern part of Los Glaciares National Park, Southern Patagonia,
Argentina, are highly dynamic due to glacier shrinkage. To improve our understanding of …

The objective of this study was to examine the streamflow variability of Argentinean Andean
basins (22°–52° S). Trends and step changes of seven hydrological variables were …

Over the last decades, glaciers across the Andes have been strongly affected by a loss of
mass and surface areas. This increases risks of water scarcity for the Andean population …
