I have given this sector less thought, but I would imagine there would be applications for stocking retail stores,

Detecting glacialquakes is important because glaciers appear to accelerate after large calving events.2 The frequency of glacialquakes — which has been rising since the late 1990s — has increased

seasonal changes in temperature.1, 3
