The Earth is a dynamic system that undergoes spatial and temporal changes in response to natural and human induced forces. In the Polar Regions such changes are amplified, making these regions particularly suitable to study and to understand processes operating in the Earth system. By using remote sensing data and techniques it is now possible to investigate the high latitude regions in a way that was inconceivable even a few decades ago. International Polar Year (2007-2009). The case studies presented i...

Key Points and FAQ. Glaciers are a spectacular and important component of the Polar landscape. Most of the world’s glaciers are found near the Polar Regions. Glaciers exist where, over a period of years, snow remains after summer's end. There is a delicate balance between climatic factors that allows snow to remain beyond the summer season. (Source: USGS. The National Snow and Ice Data Center (NSIDC) maintains an excellent web site with information on glaciers, including facts and figures. Nearly 100 yea...
