Twentieth-century glacier change at Svartisen, Norway: the influence of climate, glacier geometry and glacier dynamics

In the 1870s and 1880s, after a long period of cold conditions, most of the glaciers of Svartisen ended near their maximum Neoglacial limit. Subsequent changes, although principally a response to the climatic controls of mass balance, have been influenced by glacier geometry, including area/altitude...
