a SECR map (dh/dt, m/yr) for Rusalka and Hoek Glaciers from July 24, 2012, to July 4, 2014. b SECR map from July 4, 2014, to June 21, 2017. The dotted black lines in (a, b) indicate the estimated GL positions for 2014 and 2017, respectively. c, d Hypsometric SECR profiles binned at 50 m elevation intervals for grounded ice on Rusalka and Hoek Glaciers, along with their respective hypsometric distributions for the two periods. Background: Landsat-8 optical image acquired on February 2, 2015.
