Abstract:
ABSTRACT A third-order linear glacier length model is used to analyze if the retreat of Hintereisferner in the Austrian Alps over the past 160 years is exceptional, or lies within the range of the natural variability inherent to a stationary climate. A detailed uncertainty analysis takes into account glacier geometry, model parameters and initial conditions. A Monte Carlo ensemble strengthens the result that the observed retreat cannot be explained by natural variability and therefore affirms regional climate change. Finally the observed temperature trend at Hintereisferner lies outside the ra

Abstract:
A one-dimensional ice flow model was adapted to reconstruct fluctuations of Hintereisferner, Ötztal Alps, since the last postglacial maximum in the mid-19th century. Both front positions and longitudinal ice thickness profiles were considered.As forcing function the specific mass balance was used. The model was calibrated with the period 1953–91, because since 1953 the mass balance has been determined directly. For the period before 1953, as a first step so-called dendro-mass balances (derived from tree rings) were used. Then the mass balance was also parameterized as a function of temperature

Abstract:
Abstract. In the hydrological year 2021/2022, Alpine glaciers showed unprecedented mass loss. On Hintereisferner (Ötztal Alps, Austria), the glacier-wide mass balance was −3319 kg m−2. Near-daily observations of the surface elevation changes from a permanent terrestrial laser scanning set-up allowed the determination of the day when the mass balance of Hintereisferner started to become negative. This Glacier Loss Day (GLD) was already reached on 23 June in 2022 and gave way to a long ice ablation period. In 2021/2022, this and the high cumulative positive degree days explain the record-breakin

Abstract. A terrestrial laser scanner (TLS) of the type RIEGL VZ-6000 has been permanently installed and automated at Hintereisferner glacier located in the Ötztal Alps, Austria, to identify snow (re)distribution from surface height changes. A first case study is presented that shows and discusses detected snow distribution at the glacier after a snowfall event, together with concurrent snow erosion and deposition caused by avalanches. The paper shows the potential of a TLS system in a high mountain environment, which is also applicable to other environmental mapping applications. It introduce

Abstract:
AbstractIn this study, long-term series of winter mass balances from two neighbouring glaciers in the southern Oetztal Alps, Austria, i.e. Hintereisferner and Vernagtferner, are analyzed with respect to the methods used in their determination. For this purpose, (1) some basic data of field surveys are presented, (2) the influence of different temporal systems is discussed, and (3) the profile, contour and a ‘model’ method based on energy-balance ablation modelling and measured net mass balance are discussed with respect to the reliability of the resulting series.

Abstract:
Abstract. Climatic forcing affects glacier mass balance, which causes changes in ice flow dynamics and glacier length changes on different timescales. Mass balance and length changes are operationally used for glacier monitoring, whereas only a few time series of glacier dynamics have been recorded. Here we present a unique dataset of yearly averaged ice flow velocity measurements at stakes and stone lines covering more than 100 years on Hintereisferner and more than 50 years on Kesselwandferner. Moreover, the dataset contains sub-seasonal variations in ice flow from Gepatschferner and Taschac

Abstract:
Landsat 5 Thematic Mapper observations are used to derive the horizontal distribution of reflectance over Hintereisferner in Austria. To analyze temporal evolution of surface reflectance, three different dates are considered. The retrieval method adopts the linear relation between the planetary and surface reflectance, which follows directly from the principles of invariance. Constants in this linear relation are determined using a simple two-stream radiation model for each of the three days under consideration. From a comparison with observations the retrieved albedo is shown to compare favor
