 ew:\nThe physical processes controlling glacier dynamics form the basis of 
 modern glaciology. In spite of the rapid growth in observational data, the 
 ultimate scientific challenge continues to be relating observations to proc
 esses. Time-series observational data are essential to understanding proces
 ses; however, their analysis often reveals processes operating on timescale
 s ranging from diurnal to millennial. Individual processes may underpin lon
 g-term glacier stability, promote instability, or drive natural variability
  in the glacier state. For example, gravitationally-driven flow is among th
 e most fundamental processes in glaciology and is controlled by ice-surface
  slope and thickness. The evolution of the ice surface, in turn, reveals pr
 ocesses related to the mechanical controls on ice flow, firn compaction, de
 velopment of supraglacial meltwater flow networks, basal melt, isostasy, an
 d surface mass balance. Each of these processes alters the surface elevatio
 n and is characterized by a different timescale. Assessment of the processe
 s producing changes over a particular time interval poses a major challenge
 . Hence, even routinely acquired data are difficult to reason about. Interp
 retation of other data, such as surface velocity, climatological data, rada
 r stratigraphy, glacier history, ice core records, paleoclimate proxies, an
 d in-situ observations, are also confounded by relations between processes 
 and timescales.\nImportant information:\n\n- Abstract submission is open un

 <p>The physical processes controlling glacier dynamics form the basis of mo
 dern glaciology. In spite of the rapid growth in observational data, the ul
 timate scientific challenge continues to be relating observations to proces
 ses. Time-series observational data are essential to understanding processe
 s; however, their analysis often reveals processes operating on timescales 
 ranging from diurnal to millennial. Individual processes may underpin long-
 term glacier stability, promote instability, or drive natural variability i
 n the glacier state. For example, gravitationally-driven flow is among the 
 most fundamental processes in glaciology and is controlled by ice-surface s
 lope and thickness. The evolution of the ice surface, in turn, reveals proc
 esses related to the mechanical controls on ice flow, firn compaction, deve
 lopment of supraglacial meltwater flow networks, basal melt, isostasy, and 
 surface mass balance. Each of these processes alters the surface elevation 
 and is characterized by a different timescale. Assessment of the processes 
 producing changes over a particular time interval poses a major challenge. 
 Hence, even routinely acquired data are difficult to reason about. Interpre
 tation of other data, such as surface velocity, climatological data, radar 
 stratigraphy, glacier history, ice core records, paleoclimate proxies, and
