Short summary
Significantly different surge behaviors in Karakoram reveal critical knowledge gaps in the underlying mechanism, urging detailed investigations. We integrate multisource remote sensing datasets to holistically characterize surge phases of a Karakoram glacier, quantifying flow velocity, surface elevation, terminus position, and lake level variations. This integrated approach underscores the value of multi-sensor synergies in deciphering complex surge mechanisms.
