Record #125614:

Changes in the longitudinal profiles of glaciers during advance and retreat / M.P. Schwitter, Charles F. Raymond.

Title: Changes in the longitudinal profiles of glaciers during advance and retreat / M.P. Schwitter, Charles F. Raymond.
Author(s): Schwitter, M. P.
Raymond, Charles F.
Date: 1993.
In: Journal of Glaciology. (1993.), Vol. 39(133) (1993)
Abstract: Aim was to synthesize available observations of changes in geometry from several alpine glaciers to examine range of values of profile-shape factor. Thus, measure of concentration of thickness changes in lower reaches of glacier is provided, which permits linkage of observable landscape patterns, volume changes of glaciers and dynamic aspects of glacial response to changing climate.
