Elevation Change of Drangajdkull, Iceland, from Cloud-Cleared ICESat Repeat Profiles and GPS Ground-Survey Data ...

66th Eastern Snow Conference (Niagara-on-the-Lake, Ontario) ... : Located on the Vestfirdir Northwest Fjords), DrangaJokull is the northernmost ice map in Iceland. Currently, the ice cap exceeds 900 m in elevation and covered an area of approx.l46 sq km in August 2004. It was about 204 sq km in area...

Currently, the ice cap exceeds 900 m in elevation and covered an area of approx.l46 sq km in August 2004. It was about 204 sq km in area during 1913-1914 and so has lost mass during the 20th century.

In addition, traditional mass-balance measurements have been taken seasonally at a number of locations across the ice cap and they show positive net mass balances in 2004/2005 through 2006/2007.
