GIS maps of geology and geomorphology

Ossoue glacier (OSS) is located in the Pyrennees massif (France), between 2750 and 3210 m altitude. The glacier is one of the last glacier in this massif.This site is characterized by various glaciological parameters performed annually : annual and seasonnal mass balance, ice velocity, ice thickness variation, snout position.OSS is a part of the French Glacier Observatory GLACIOCLIM/CRYOBS-CLIM. All the series on Ossoue glacier (OSS) are unique and necessary for glaciological studies. They permit to calibrate models in order to determine future glacier evolution

Mer de Glace Glacier (MDG) is located in the Mont-Blanc valley (France), between 1500 and 3600 m altitude. The glacier is the larger glacier in France and one of the glaciers with longest records of glacier mass balance worldwide. Data series are continuous and cover few decades.This site is also characterized by the complete glaciological parameters performed annually to complete annual and seasonal mass balance: ice velocity, ice thickness variation, snout position.In addition, meteorological observations complete the data base. MDG is a part of the French Glacier Observatory GLACIOCLIM/CRYOBS-CLIM.
