Method and provenance
- Production method
- Reconstructs regional glacier outlines and area changes from mapped geomorphological evidence and multitemporal imagery, with historical climate context.
- Provenance
- Published in Global and Planetary Change (Vol. 264, Article 105555) by an international research team.
- Validation
- Peer Reviewed Study
- Uncertainty
- Mapped area-loss uncertainty accompanies the outlines. The source does not establish the previously asserted new lichenometric and cosmogenic cross-validation. Abstract and table percentages differ slightly; approximately 41% is an appropriately qualified summary.
- Limitations
- Regional historical baseline predating the 2026 event. It does not independently demonstrate source-zone debuttressing, permafrost degradation, or the cause of the later failure.
