Summary

This repository contains a suite of digital elevation models (DEMs), derived from aerial or satellite imagery, covering glacier and proglacial areas on Mount Rainier between 1960 and 2017. Data are available for the Emmons, Winthrop, Nisqually, and South Tahoma Glaciers and their associated proglacial areas. These data were used in Anderson and Shean (2021) to calculate DEMs of Difference (DoDs) and assess topographic change in these proglacial settings. Aerial lidar datasets used in that analysis are available through the Washington Department of Natural Resources lidar repository (https://lidarportal.dnr.wa.gov/). The DEMs stored here have been coregistered to the 2008 Mount Rainier aerial lidar dataset. Differencing of sequential [...]

Purpose

These data were used to assess proglacial sediment dynamics on Mount Rainier. Digital elevation models may also be used to assess glacier change since 1960.
