The course transmits fundamental knowledge for treating applied glaciological problems. Topics include climate-glacier interactions, glacier ice flow, glacier hydrology, ice avalanches, and lake ice.
Applied Glaciology
Angewandte Glaziologie
Es werden physikalische Grundlagen vermittelt die zum Verstaendnis praktischer Anwendungen noetig sind. Die Themen sind: Gletscher-Klima Beziehung, Gletscherfliessen, Seeeis und Gletscherhydrologie.
Cryosphere
Kryosphäre
The course introduces the different components of the cryosphere - snow, glaciers, ice sheets, sea ice and lake ice, and permafrost - and their respective roles in the climate system. For each subsystem, essential physical aspects are emphasized, and their dynamics are described quantitatively and using examples.

Independent work or practical glaciology
Selbständige Arbeit oder Praktikum Glaziologie
Kennenlernen von Methoden in der Glaziologie
Understanding glaciers and ice sheets with simple physical concepts. Topics include the reaction of glaciers to the climate, flow of glacier ice, temperature in glaciers and ice sheets, glacier hydrology, glacier seismology, basal motion and calving glaciers. A special focus is the current development of the ice sheets of Greenland and Antarctica.
