Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs, UAS, drones) combined with Structure-from-Motion (SfM)
photogrammetry have emerged over the last decade as the basis for a very efficient …

The melting of glaciers and ice caps accounts for about one-third of current sea-level rise,–,
exceeding the mass loss from the more voluminous Greenland or Antarctic Ice Sheets,. The …

Svalbard has experienced a dramatic increase in air temperature and glacier retreat since
the end of the Little Ice Age. In many cases, this retreat has resulted in glaciers transitioning …

Tidewater glaciers on the east coast of Svalbard were examined for surface elevation
changes and retreat rate. An archival digital elevation model (DEM) from 1970 (generated …

Glacier-fed hydrological systems in high latitude regions experience high seasonal variation
in meltwater runoff. The peak in runoff usually coincides with the highest air temperatures …

The termini of Icelandic glaciers are highly dynamic environments. Pronounced changes in
frontal ablation in recent years have consequently changed ice dynamics. In this study, we …

Small Arctic coastal catchments and coastal lagoon systems are some of the most
vulnerable to climate change. Glacial retreat and the development of glacial lakes and …

The Arctic region is undergoing rapid and extensive transformations due to global climate
change. This study investigated the spatial distribution of 31 chemical elements in eight …

Satellite-based remote sensing and uncrewed aerial imagery play increasingly important
roles in the mapping of wildlife populations and wildlife habitat, but the availability of …

Climate change has become significantly pronounced in the Arctic over recent decades. In
addition to these climate effects, the environment has experienced severe anthropogenic …
