Resumen

Este trabajo presenta la aplicacion de un laser escaner terrestre de largo alcance para la monitorizacion de la acumulacion de nieve y evolucion de heleros en el Pirineo. Con el estudio realizado se muestra el gran potencial de la metodologia presentada para estudios en ambientes de montana, concretamente en investigaciones relacionadas con la monitorizacion de la criosfera en relacion a la variabilidad climatica y la topografia compleja propia de ambientes de montana. Se presenta un protocolo completo para la adquisicion y tratamiento de las nubes de puntos medidas por un laser escaner de largo alcance (RIEGL LPM-321) para la generacion de modelos digitales del terreno, con el proposito de comparar dichos modelos obtenidos en distintos momentos. Asi se obtienen espesores de nieve y cambios de espesor de las masas de hielo. Como casos de estudio se presentan resultados de dos pequenos heleros situados en el macizo de Monte Perdido y la acumulacion de nieve en una pequena cuenca situada en el valle de Tena.
