As the difference in response times between shorter and longer glacier tongues (see below) is very clearly marked by the dating of the maximum retreat in the middle of the

By comparing our results with the Austrian Glacier Inventories from 1969 and 1998, we calculate a mean reduction in glacier area of 33% between 1969 and 2013.. The total ice

Here we present a new, Holocene glacier activity reconstruction for the maritime ice cap Ålfotbreen in western Norway, based on investigations of distal glacier-fed lake sediments
