Scope (Session Description) Glaciers, ice sheets, sea ice, permafrost, and snow patches are rapidly changing at high latitudes and high-altitude areas under the warming world. Many of these processes in the cryosphere cause seismic signals. Analysis of these signals can provide insight into the mechanisms of these processes due to environmental changes and the interactions between the cryosphere, oceans, and solid earth systems. In this session, we welcome submissions of studies based on signal processing with seismic, infrasound and acoustic data related to glaciers, ice sheets, sea ice, permafrost, and snow patches in the cryosphere. This session will provide an opportunity to discuss with a wide range of researchers in various fields of seismology in the cryosphere, including, for example, icequakes caused by glacier and ice sheet flow and iceberg calving, applications of machine learning on processing icequakes, development of new seismic observation methods in the cryosphere, and comparison of crustal deformation and glacial earthquakes.
