Propagating speedups during quiescence escalate to the 2020–2021 surge of Sít’ Kusá, southeast Alaska

We use satellite image processing techniques to measure surface elevation and velocity changes on a temperate surging glacier, Sít’ Kusá, throughout its entire 2013–2021 surge cycle. We present detailed records of its dynamic changes during quiescence (2013–2019) and its surge progression (2020–2021...
