Annual reports are here presented on the frontal variations of Italian glaciers detected during the 2017 glaciological survey, conducted by about 200 volunteer operators in the three Alpine sectors (Piemonte - Valle d’Aosta, Lombardy and Triveneto) and in the Apennines (Calderone Glacier, Gran Sasso Group). 109 glaciers were visited in the Piemonte - Valle d’Aosta sector (58 were measured), 20 in the Lombardy Sector (16 measured), 54 in the Triveneto Sector (45 measured) and 1 in the Apennines. A specific section is dedicated since this year to the mass balance of 17 Italian glaciers monitored during the 2016-2017 hydrological year.
