Scientists Assemble High-Resolution Dataset of 149 Glaciers in Svalbard Using AI
Scientists used artificial intelligence to analyze 125,000 satellite images of glaciers in Svalbard to learn more about the seasonal melt patterns and ice mass loss of marine-terminating glaciers.
Their work will help predict glacier dynamics and their contribution to future sea-level rise as other regions experience increased warming.
