    • A near 90-year record of the evolution of El Morado Glacier and its proglacial lake, Central Chilean Andes 
      Farías Barahona, David; Wilson, Ryan; Bravo, Claudio; Vivero, Sebastián; Caro, Alexis; Shaw, Thomas E.; Casassa, Gino; Silva Ayala, Álvaro Felipe; Mejías Acuña, Alonso; Harrison, Stephan; Glasser, Neil F.; McPhee, James; Wündrich, Olaf; Braun, Matthias H. (Cambridge University Press, 2020)
      Using an ensemble of close- and long-range remote sensing, lake bathymetry and regional meteorological data, we present a detailed assessment of the geometric changes of El Morado Glacier in the Central Andes of Chile and ...
    • Black carbon and other light-absorbing impurities in snow in the Chilean Andes 
      Rowe, Penny M.; Cordero, Raul R.; Warren, Stephen G.; Stewart, Emily; Doherty, Sarah J.; Pankow, Alec; Schrempf, Michael; Casassa, Gino; Carrasco, Jorge; Pizarro, Jaime; MacDonell, Shelley; Damiani, Alessandro; Lambert, Fabrice; Rondanelli, Roberto; Huneeus Lagos, Nicolás; Fe (Nature Publishing Group, 2019)
      Vertical profiles of black carbon (BC) and other light-absorbing impurities were measured in seasonal snow and permanent snowfields in the Chilean Andes during Austral winters 2015 and 2016, at 22 sites between latitudes ...
    • Elemental and Mineralogical Composition of the Western Andean Snow (18°S–41°S) 
      Alfonso, Juan A.; Cordero, Raul R.; Rowe, Penny M.; Neshyba, Steven; Casassa, Gino; Carrasco, Jorge; MacDonell, Shelley; Lambert, Fabrice; Pizarro, Jaime; Fernandoy, Francisco; Feron, Sarah; Damiani, Alessandro; Llanillo, Pedro; Sepulveda, Edgardo; Jorquera, Jose; Garci (Nature Publishing Group, 2019)
      The snowpack is an important source of water for many Andean communities. Because of its importance, elemental and mineralogical composition analysis of the Andean snow is a worthwhile effort. In this study, we conducted ...
    • Glacier shrinkage and negative mass balance in the Chilean Lake District (40°S) 
      Rivera Ibáñez, Sergio; Bown, Francisca; Casassa, Gino; Acuña, César; Clavero, Jorge (Taylor & Francis, 2005)
      Ice-capped volcanoes of the Chilean Lake District have shown significant glacier retreat during recent decades, probably in response to tropospheric warming and precipitation decrease. Volcán Mocho-Choshuenco (39°55′S, ...
    • Ice elevation and areal changes of glaciers from the Northern Patagonia Icefield, Chile 
      Rivera Ibáñez, Sergio; Benham, Toby; Casassa, Gino; Bamber, Jonathan; Dowdeswell, Julian A. (Elsevier, 2007)
      High thinning rates (up to −4.0±0.97 m a−1) have been measured at Campo de Hielo Patagónico Norte (CHN) or Northern Patagonia Icefield, Chile between 1975 and 2001. Results have been obtained by comparing a Digital Elevation ...
    • Volume changes on Pio XI glacier, Patagonia: 1975-1995 
      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 ...
