Numerous studies have demonstrated the potential of Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) in monitoring glacier velocity. However, owing to the complex dynamics of glaciers and the variability of their surface features, velocity fields derived from even short-interval SAR image pairs often exhibit missing parts. This study proposes a missing glacier velocity recovery method based on a spatiotemporal hybrid neural network to solve the above problem. Considering the spatiotemporal characteristics of glacier velocity fields, a hybrid network combining an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) and a Denoising Autoencoder (DAE) is developed. The ANN is first employed to capture spatial correlations associated with missing values, after which it is integrated with the DAE to model temporal variations using a time-aware loss function. An iterative weighting strategy adaptively balances spatial and temporal features during training. The method is applied to SAR–derived velocity fields of Petermann Glacier. Experimental results show that the method significantly improves the performance of glacier velocity recovery compared to traditional methods. Additionally, the study compares and analyzes the velocity of Petermann Glacier in different seasons, and the findings indicate that the glacier exhibits more pronounced seasonal differences in the accumulation zone.
