The effects of climate change are most clearly reflected in the
dynamic changes in Earth's ice cover. While the distribution of ice
on Earth has fluctuated on all time scales, the recent,
unprecedented warming of the last century is leading to an apparent
collapse of much of the remaining glaciers and ice caps on the
planet. What is the best way to study this ice cover? How can we
best determine what changes are occurring and their causes? This
book is addressed to researchers in the field of glaciers and
climate that are interested in methods to study the ever-changing
cryosphere. From the world's largest tropical ice cap to the
Greenland Ice Sheet, this book takes you on a journey across the
world and through several different methods of gleaming information
from the ice. In the tropics, remote sensing classification
techniques are applied to the Quelccaya Ice Cap to present a
40-year history of the retreat of glaciers there and some analysis
of the linkages to climate. On the Greenland Ice Sheet, field
measurements are employed to create an elevation profile of the
mass balance components of the glacier. Finally, three mass balance
models are investigated in their applicability to that profile with
some surprising results.
