LeConte Glacier time-lapse photos 2016-2017, Alaska
In 2016-2017 we conducted a field study at LeConte Glacier, Alaska, to study the impacts of subglacial discharge on plume dynamics and submarine melting. As part of that study, eight time-lapse cameras documented the terminus and proglacial fjord of LeConte Glacier, Alaska in order to (i) track iceb...
