Description

This repository contains two zipped elements used in the study Interannual Dynamics of Ice Cliff Populations on Debris-Covered Glaciers from Remote Sensing Observations and Stochastic Modeling:

1. The cliff & pond shapefiles (Outlines.zip) of each of the study glaciers every year from 2009 (2010 for Satopanth and Bhagirath Kharak) to 2019. 

2. The R scripts (Codes.zip) used to derive cliff & pond information from shapefiles, track cliffs from one date to another and model the cliff population dynamics on a debris-covered glacier with a stochastic birth-death model.
