Journal ArticleDOI
Surface Heat Balance and Spatially Distributed Ablation Modelling at Koryto Glacier, Kamchatka Peninsula, Russia
TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed a distributed ablation model, which only needed measurements of air temperature and global radiation at one site, and calculated the hourly spatial distribution of ablation rates within the glacier area.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reconstruction of the depositional environment upstream of Potanin Glacier, Mongolian Altai, from pollen analysis
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyzed pollen in snow pits dug in September 2008 and September 2009 upstream of Potanin Glacier in the Mongolian Altai Mountains, which is a summer accumulation type glacier, to investigate the environment for recent snow deposits.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the snow and ice algal communities on four glaciers in the Suntar-Khayata Mountain Range in eastern Siberia in Russia over three melting seasons from 2012 to 2014.
Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of weather conditions and spatial variability on glacier surface melt in Chilean Patagonia
TL;DR: In this article, meteorological observations were carried out in the ablation area of Glaciar Exploradores in the Chilean Patagonia during the austral summer of 2006/2007.
Journal ArticleDOI
Depositional and summer snow melting features in 2007–2011 on the upstream side of Potanin Glacier, Mongolian Altai, reconstructed by pollen and oxygen isotope analysis
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyzed pollen in snow pits dug in late summer (2008-2011) on the upstream side of Potanin Glacier, a summer accumulation-type glacier in the Mongolian Altai, to reconstruct the recent snow depositional environment, particularly melting conditions.
