Service Description: For the first time, glacier area and length changes for all of Norway have been mapped. A decrease in glacier area of - 11 % in the last ca. 30 years are recorded, corresponding to an area reduction of 326 km2. The northernmost glaciers show the highest retreat rates, and the general pattern in Norway reveals retreating glaciers. More details can be found in the paper: Glacier area and length changes in Norway from repeat inventories.

Description: Glaciers in mainland Norway have importance for hydropower production, climate research and tourism, but are also a source of natural hazards. Glacier influence on river discharge and hydropower production has resulted in an extensive glacier measurement record.
