1 Mapping Glaciers and surging glaciers in the Karakoram using satellite data Frank Paul Department of Geography University of Zurich Sentinel 2: Copernicus 2015! Satellites Image source: Internet
2 Landsat 8 (30 m) Landsat data: USGS! Paul! Sentinel 2 (10 m) Sentinel 2: Copernicus 2015! Paul!
3 Sensors: timelines and applications Optical outlines velocity (DEMs) DEMs elev. change (inventories) Altimeters elev. change Microwave velocity (DEMs) Paul (Glaciers_cci) Paul! Change in spectral bands (optical sensors) Courtesy: A. Kääb! Paul!

7 Accuracy: manual glacier delineation (Landsat) Landsat data: USGS! Paul et al. (2015) Time series of area changes Marzeion et al. (in press)
8 Surging glaciers in the Central Karakoram Google Earth! Study region & surging glaciers Copland et al. 2011!
9 Surge-type glaciers and research questions Criteria to identify surge-type glaciers Skamri surge-type - historic evidence - length changes (? km) - advance rates (>? m/a) - flow velocity (>? m/d) - surface appearance => wide range of values - surge / quiescent phase - repeat surges? - constant period? Shingchukpi K2 1 st Feriole Historic documents and field evidence Surging Shingchukpi Glacier (2005) Copland et al. 2011! Hewitt 2007!

12 Conclusions Karakoram glaciers received a surge of attention recently Annual length changes, decadal volume changes, velocity fields and their changes through time have been derived Previous surges were noted, but not further investigated Non-surging glaciers have not changed much since 1960s Surge-type glaciers are often steep, small and debris-free and surge periodically (every y), but non-synchronous Likely no climatic reasons for surging, but others also stable Surging glaciers should be excluded in CC impact assessm.
