Application of a simplified energy-balance and heat-transfer model to simulate sub-debris melt on the Djankuat Glacier, Caucasus

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology
Supraglacial debris strongly modifies melt rates on debris-covered glaciers, yet simulating this effect remains challenging because modelling the full surface energy balance (SEB) and the vertical conduction of heat through the debris layer requires many

Analysis of the temporal variations in glaciers’ surface area in Alaknanda River Basin, Uttarakhand

open access: yesJournal of Water and Climate Change
This study presented detailed analysis of glacier surface extent in the Alaknanda river basin, Western Himalaya, using Landsat series data, land surface temperature and digital elevation model (DEM).

Debris-covered glaciers as habitat for plant and arthropod species : environmental framework and colonization patterns

open access: yes, 2017
Debris-covered glaciers are glaciers with the largest part of the ablation zone covered by a debris layer. Recent papers showed that debris-covered glaciers are able to support plant and arthropod life, advancing the hypothesis that such landforms could ...

Comparing the evolution of debris-free and debris-covered glaciers during the end of the Lateglacial and the Holocene in Dudh Koshi basin, Everest region, Nepal

open access: yes
International audienceDebris-covered glaciers are very frequent geomorphological features in Khumbu Himal (Nepal). Rock debris on the glacier surface play a significant role in glacier-climate relationships and glacier dynamics.
