New documents on the GLIMS website

[Bruce Raup]

Hi all,

I want to point out a couple of new documents on the GLIMS website at
http://www.glims.org/

- The "Illustrated GLIMS Glacier Classification Manual", by Frank Rau and
  others.
  http://www.glims.org/MapsAndDocs/assets/GLIMS_Glacier-Classification-Manual_V1_2005-02-10.pdf

  This summarizes the WGMS glacier terms in pictures, and discusses an
  extension to the WGMS glacier classification system for GLIMS.

- A "GLIMS Analysis Tutorial", by me and Siri Jodha Singh Khalsa.
  http://www.glims.org/MapsAndDocs/assets/GLIMS_Analysis_Tutorial.pdf

  This is the beginning of a tutorial to answer basic questions on how to
  get started doing a GLIMS glacier analysis.  We expect this document to
  expand in the future.

In addition, the database description at
http://www.glims.org/MapsAndDocs/db_design.html
has been updated a bit, and a new Data Dictionary and Entity Relation
Diagram (ERD) have been posted.

We welcome all feedback on any of the above.

Regards,
Bruce
