Glacier volumes

About

The course describes different glacier volume estimating approaches including: GPR and Volume-Area scaling. The course discusses in detail various glacier thickness measuring and modelling approaches including: Drilling a bore hole, Seismic measurements, Geoelectric techniques and Radio-echo sounding (Radar). The course also gives a detailed account of V-A scaling and parameterization required for various glacier process. Hands-on estimation of glacier volume over the Himalayas using different glacier volume estimation methods is also provided in the course.
