Differences in the transient responses of individual glaciers: a case study of the Cascade Mountains of Washington State, USA

Mountain glaciers have response times that govern retreat due to anthropogenic climate change. We use geometric attributes to estimate individual response times for 383 glaciers in the Cascade mountain range of Washington State, USA. Approximately 90% of estimated response times are between 10 and 6...
