The geomorphology of debris-covered Ponkar Glacier, Nepal

2020
<p>Understanding the evolution of debris-covered glaciers in High Mountain Asia is important for making informed projections of climate change impacts and associated water security and hazard-related issues.  Here we describe the geomorphology of Ponkar Glacier, a debris-covered glacier in Nepal using high-resolution

The formation of supraglacial debris covers by primary dispersal from transverse englacial debris bands

Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, 2013
ABSTRACTGlaciological controls on debris cover formation are investigated from the perspective of primary dispersal of supraglacial debris across a melting ice surface. This involves the migration of angled debris septa outcrops across a melting, thinning glacier ablation zone.

The role of supraglacial debris in Himalaya-Karakoram debris-covered glacier systems

2017
Spatiotemporal variability in supraglacial debris properties have the potential to affect estimations of mass balance for debris-covered glaciers. This thesis is concerned with identifying the extent to which debris properties vary in space and time, and the role of these variabilities in estimations of specific mass balance.

Inferring Debris Properties on Debris-Covered Glaciers: Implications for Glacier Modelling

Debris, ranging from thin surface dust to medial moraines and thick, continuous layers in ablation zones, partially covers glaciers all around the world. By modifying energy transfer from the atmosphere to the ice, the supraglacial debris layer fundamentally controls sub-debris melt rates.

DEBRIS-COVERED GLACIERS AND ROCK GLACIERS

2014
The debris-covered glaciers are observed all over the glaciation regions of the world (Alps, Antarctica, Greenland, Ants, Cascades, Rocky Mountains and ext.). The debris covered glaciers are the formations which occur as a result of the recession of normal glaciers.
