| Title: | Hazard assessment of glacial lake outburst floods from Kyagar glacier, Karakoram mountains, China / Christoph Haemmig, and 6 others. |
| Author(s): | Haemmig, Christoph. |
| Date: | 2014. |
| In: | Annals of Glaciology. (2014.), Vol. 55(66) (2014) |
| Abstract: | Presents analysis of potential for glacial lake outburst floods from Kyagar glacier, upper Shaksgam valley, Karakorum mountains, China, and describes early warning system implemented between 2011-13. Analysis takes into account ice flow dynamics of glacier and recent surface mass-balance changes. Compares digital elevation models (DEMs) of ice dam from 2002 and 2011, and of whole glacier from 2000-10. Analyses velocity based on feature tracking of synthetic aperture radar images. |
