In this study, glacier ice thickness distribution and storage volume has been modelled for two glaciers viz., Vestre Broggerbreen and Feiringbreen situated across the Kongsfjorden around Ny-Ålesund in Svalbard. These two high Arctic glaciers are being monitored through the ongoing efforts of the Ind...
