#NewPaper 📢 Evolution of the dynamics of Airdrop Glacier, western Axel Heiberg Island, over a seven-decade-long advance
Read the paper by Benoît Lauzon and @uOttawaGEG_ENV @GeogWaterloo @unetweets @UlsterUniGES colleagues: cdnsciencepub.com/doi/full/1…
ALT Figure from paper. Caption: Evolution of the terminus position of Airdrop Glacier from 1959 to 2021. The colour palette ranges from dark blue (earliest) to light blue (latest), while certain years are annotated, and their respective terminus lines are thicker to help with visual interpretation. The inset graph shows the cumulative terminus advance from 1959 to 2021 based on the results from Table 3. Base image: Landsat 8, 7 August 2020.
