Glacier Snow Line - Svalbard

Satellite albedo data from MODIS is used to track snow-line on glaciers in Svalbard, with snow-line serving as a proxy for the Equilibrium Line Altitude (ELA). Eventually the results will be available as shapefiles. A table with snow lines derived with this method is available and snow line can be p...

Description
Summary:Satellite albedo data from MODIS is used to track snow-line on glaciers in Svalbard, with snow-line serving as a proxy for the Equilibrium Line Altitude (ELA). Eventually the results will be available as shapefiles. A table with snow lines derived with this method is available and snow line can be plotted against time
