Glaciological data collected on the Juneau Icefield, Alaska. Focuses on GPS-derived surface velocity, surface elevations, and strain rates. crevassezone.org
Long-term program to monitor climate, stream runoff, and the motion, mass balance, and geometry of glaciers at a few sites in Alaska and Washington State. Data are used to understand glacier-related hydrologic processes and improve prediction of water re ak.water.usgs.gov/glaciology
General introduction to glaciers, the Antarctic, and related topics in weather, climate, oceans, and geology, from Rice University (Texas). www.glacier.rice.edu
Climate research through ice core drillings (including logistics and instrumental development), analysis of chemical and physical parameters and modelling. Other topics: Studies of ice rheology and studies of extraterrestrial ice. www.glaciology.gfy.ku.dk
