A low-cost and open-source approach for supraglacial debris thickness mapping using UAV-based infrared thermography

Abstract: Abstract. Debris-covered glaciers exist in many mountain ranges and play an important role in the regional water cycle. However, modelling the surface mass balance, runoff contribution and future evolution of debris-covered glaciers is fraught with uncertainty as accurate information on small-scale variations in debris thickness and sub-debris ice melt rates is only available for a few locations worldwide. Here we present a customised low-cost UAV for high-resolution thermal imaging of mountain glaciers and a … Show more
