    • Rivera Ibáñez, Sergio (Universidad de Chile, 2001)
      Se presentan resultados de mediciones de espesor de hielo realizadas en Chile centro-sur (30-41°S) durante los últimos años. La información fue obtenida mediante radar en cinco glaciares. En todos los casos, las señales ...
    • Corripio, Javier G.; Brock, Ben; Clavero Ribes, Jorge; Wendt, Jens; Rivera Ibáñez, Sergio (INT GLACIOL SOC., 2008)
      Volc´an Villarrica (39◦25 12 S, 71◦56 27 W; 2847ma.s.l.) is an active ice-capped volcano located in the Chilean lake district. The surface energy balance and glacier frontal variations have been monitored for several ...
    • Rada Giacaman, Camilo Andrés (Universidad de ChilePrograma Cybertesis, 2009)
    • Rivera Ibáñez, Sergio; Zamora, Rodrigo; Uribe, José; Wendt, Anja; Oberreuter, Jonathan; Cisternas, Sebastián; Gimeno, Fernando; Clavero, Jorge (Springer, 2015)
      Results obtained by the first intensive airborne surveys carried out at Volca´n Villarrica (39 S) in Southern Chile, are presented. These campaigns included the use of a scanner laser system, for detecting the glacier ...
    • Bown, Francisca; Rivera Ibáñez, Sergio; Acuña, César (International Glaciological Society, 2008-06)
      The majority of glaciers in central Chile have receded in recent decades, from >50m to only a few meters per year, mainly in response to an increase in the 08C isotherm altitude. The Aconcagua river basin (338 S) is one ...
    • Rivera Ibáñez, Sergio; Bown, Francisca (Elsevier, 2013)
      Glaciers in the southern province of the Southern Volcanic Zone (SVZ) of Chile (37e46 S) have experienced significant frontal retreats and area losses in recent decades which have been primarily triggered by tropospheric ...
    • Bravo Lechuga, Claudio (Universidad de Chile, 2008)
      En el presente trabajo se determinaron las características glaciológicas del volcán Villarrica en el Último Máximo Glacial (UMG), la Pequeña Edad del Hielo (PEH) y el presente. La estimación del volumen de hielo y de otras ...
    • Bamber, Jonathan; Rivera Ibáñez, Sergio (ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2007-10)
      Airborne and satellite remote sensing is the only practical approach for deriving a wide area, regional assessment of glacier mass balance. A number of remote sensing approaches are possible for inferring the mass balance ...
    • Brock, Benjamin; Casassa, Gino; Bown, Francisca; Rivera Ibáñez, Sergio; Acuña, César (International Glaciological Society, 2007-10)
      The energy balance of bare snow and tephra-covered ice near the glacier equilibrium line elevation on Villarrica Volcano, southern Chile, was investigated during 2004 and 2005, combining meteorological, surface temperature ...
    • Vaughan, David G.; Woodward, John; Corr, Hugh F. J.; Rivera Ibáñez, Sergio; Wendt, Jens; Zamora, Rodrigo (AMER GEOPHYSICAL UNION, 2007-09-19)
      Subglacial Lake Ellsworth (SLE) was identified using reconnaissance data collected in the 1970s, here we present more detailed surveys. SLE lies beneath 3.2 km of ice in a subglacial valley in West Antarctica. It has ...
    • Casassa, Gino; Rivera Ibáñez, Sergio; Acuña, César (Universidad de Chile, 2000)
      Se presenta una síntesis de la investigación glaciológica realizada en Chile durante las últimas décadas, incluyendo los inventarios existentes, los balances de masa y las variaciones de glaciares, todo lo cual se analiza ...
    • Rivera Ibáñez, Sergio; Casassa, Gino (Elsevier, 1999)
      Pio XI glacier, with an area of 1263 km 2 and a length of 65.7 km, is the largest of the Southern Patagonia Icefield (SPD. During the period 1945-1995 it experienced a net advance of ca. 10 km., a unique behavior considering ...
