High Mountain Asia Glacier Thickness Change Mosaics from Multi-Sensor DEMs V001

Description

This data set contains thickness change mosaics that include approximately 650 Himalayan glaciers between 1975 and 2000, and 1040 Himalayan glaciers between 2000 and 2016. The data were derived from HEXAGON KH-9 and ASTER digital elevation models (DEMs), by fitting robust linear trends to time series of elevation pixels over the glacier surfaces.
