From: Dynamic vulnerability revealed in the collapse of an Arctic tidewater glacier
The Nathorst Glacier System (NGS) before and after its collapse. In south central Spitsbergen (a, inset), the NGS is observed from ASTER satellite imagery in 2008 (a) and 2016 (b). Centerline elevation profiles over the past 70 years (c) of the Ljosfonn tributary (gray to black line in (a)). Modeled Equilibrium Line Altitudes (ELA) from 1980–2008 and 2008–2016 are shown in (a) as thick black and green lines, respectively. Front positions (a) and elevation profiles (c) are synchronously color coded according to their year.
