Supraglacial geomorphology of Companion Glacier, central Himalaya: evolution, controls and consequences

Supraglacial geomorphology of Companion Glacier, central Himalaya: evolution, controls and consequences

Supraglacial debris cover greatly influences glacier dynamics. The present study combines field and remote sensing observations acquired between 2000 and 2020 to understand debris characteristics, area and terminus changes, surface velocity, and mass balance of the Companion Glacier, Central Himalay...
