Summary
This data release is a repository for data presented in Anderson and Shean (2021), a publication looking at topographic change in proglacial and glacier-marginal areas on Mount Rainier between 1960 and 2017. Datasets include all newly derived digital elevation models, shapefiles defining various areas of analysis, and tabular summaries of data presented in figures. See individual child items and original publication for more details.

These data were used to assess proglacial sediment dynamics on Mount Rainier. Digital elevation models may also be used to assess glacier change since 1960.
