This directory/repository contains all files related to my Master's Thesis "Testing the importance of explicit glacier dynamics for mountain glacier change projections".

For this work I re-implemented the volume/area scaling model by Marzeion et al. (2012) into the Open Global Glacier Model (OGGM) framework. This allowed to perform a set of different experiments comparing the OGGM flowline model to the scaling model under controlled boundary conditions.

The model implementation can be found under github.com/OGGM/oggm-vas.
