Glacier recession in the Swiss Alps

Panoramic view of the new proglacial at Rhonegletscher in 2016 and 2023. In the foreground is the protective cover to reduce ablation in the area of the artificial ice cave. For some years now, increasing amounts of the cover have ended up in the lake. Now, it is being removed again (photos Alean).
