The work is devoted to the glaciers of the North Caucasus. The factors influencing the dynamics of the glacier area are analyzed, and the principles of the organization of observations of glacier fluctuations are considered. The level of modern development of the field of remote sensing provides an excellent opportunity for a detailed and accurate study of the dynamic characteristics of the surface layer of ice on glaciers based on cartographic animations of a number of images. The work is based on data from space monitoring using the Meteor-M No. 2 apparatus.
