Abstract:
We delineated supraglacial ice cliffs and ponds on all glaciers of the Langtang catchment in the Nepalese Himalaya between 1974 and 2015 with high-resolution satellite data. The data includes all feature outlines (.shp files) as well as average feature statistics (area, slope, aspect etc) for each feature (.txt files). A detailed description can be found in the accompanying manuscript. More raw data upon request.
