Because of recent floods in Nepal, I felt inspired to search for more on the topic and discovered a web site that as far as I have seen so far employs exclusively SI measures, which I find refreshing. The page about the Himalayas http://iccinet.org/himalayas describes the eastern Himalayas, where the mean glacial thickness of Chinese glaciers decreased by nearly 11 meters from 1985-2005. I notice the use of the decimeter in the Antarctica page: http://iccinet.org/antarctica
