The model builds upon Marzeion et al., (2012) and intends to become a global scale, modular, and open source model for glacier dynamics. The model accounts for glacier geometry (including contributory branches) and includes a simple (yet explicit) ice dynamics module. It can simulate past and future mass-balance, volume and geometry of any glacier in a fully automated workflow. We rely exclusively on publicly available data for calibration and validation.
