Outlines the basic techniques used for measuring glacier mass balance in Canada and Norway. Techniques described are presently used in the mass-balance programs or are being actively developed. Some information included is derived from techniques that have been used for decades in glacier-monitoring programs, but additional information is provided on new instrumentation and methodologies that are now available.
