About

This site hosts a variety of satellite image products documenting glacier/climate changes around Greenland. We rely mainly on NASA’s Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS).

The ‘blog’ includes text describing imagery documenting glacier front position changes, quantitative graphs illustrating glacier changes, animations illustrating: glacier retreat/advance; crack propagation; ice shelf break up. Development of this site is supported by NSF Office of Polar Programs award 0531306.
