USGS Benchmark Glaciers - The U.S. Geological Survey operates a long-term "benchmark" glacier program to monitor climate, glacier motion, glacier mass balance, glacier geometry, and stream runoff at a few sites in Alaska and Washington State. Data are used to understand glacier-related hydrologic processes and improve prediction of water resources, glacier-related hazards, and the consequences of climate change.
