Enclosed Karst Depression Identification and Analysis for the Pumped Storage Power Station Reservoir Construction Using DEM by Yu Bo, Zhang Tao, Zheng Kexun, Zuo Shuangying, Han Xiao, Wang Senlin, Chen Shiwan

“…The effectiveness and reliability of the proposed model have been verified through comparative analysis and visual recognition comparison. (3) High-density depression areas (5.6 depressions/km2), medium-density depression areas (2.9 depressions/km2), and low-density depression areas (1.1 depressions/km2) were well classified through kernel density analysis. (4) The geometric parameters of enclosed karst depressions (area, perimeter, circularity, depth, elevation, slope, and volume) were all analyzed in the study area. …”

Topographic and hydrological controls on partial and full surges of Little Kluane Glacier, Yukon by Brittany Main, Luke Copland, Gwenn Elizabeth Flowers, Christine Fiona Dow, Wesley Van Wychen, Sergey Samsonov, William Kochtitzky

“…Based on analysis of air photos, satellite images and field observations since the 1940s, we identify a full surge of ‘Little Kluane Glacier’ from 2013 to 2018, and a partial surge of just the upper north arm between 1963 and 1972. Repeat digital elevation models and velocity profiles indicate that the recent surge initiated from the upper north arm in 2013, which developed into a full surge of the main trunk from 2017 to 2018 with peak velocities of ~3600 m a−1 and frontal advance of ~1.7 km from May to September 2018. …”
