[HTML][HTML] Sensitivity of glacier volume change estimation to DEM void interpolation

R McNabb, C Nuth, A Kääb, L Girod - The Cryosphere, 2019 - tc.copernicus.org
Glacier mass balance has been estimated on individual glacier and regional scales using
repeat digital elevation models (DEMs). DEMs often have gaps in coverage (“voids”), the …
