Description

The dataset consists of three shapefiles containing terminus positions of the Koge Bugt North, Koge Bugt Central, and Koge Bugt South glaciers respectively, between 2022-2023. The terminus positions were manually digitised using either Landsat-8 or Landsat-9 imagery, downloaded from the USGS Earth Explorer (https://earthexplorer.usgs.gov/). If suitable optical imagery was unavailable, MEaSUREs Sentinel-1A and Sentinel-1B synthetic aperture radar (SAR) mosaics were employed, downloaded from the National Snow and Ice Data Center (NSIDC; Joughin, 2021). The dataset comprises 71 terminus positions in total, each digitised from imagery collected between 2022-01-11 and 2023-12-08.Hannah Picton acknowledges funding from the E4 DTP (Edinburgh Earth, Ecology and Environment Doctoral Training Partnership), NE/S007407/1.
