Characterising englacial R-channels using artificial moulins
The englacial and subglacial drainage systems exert key controls on glacier dynamics. However, due to their inaccessibility, they are still only poorly understood and more detailed observations are important, particularly to validate and tune physical ...

Bedload Transport Monitoring in Alpine Rivers: Variability in Swiss Plate Geophone Response
Acoustic sensors are increasingly used to measure bedload transport in Alpine streams, notably the Swiss plate geophone (SPG) system. An impact experiment using artificial weights is developed in this paper to assess the variability in individual plate ...

Drainage of an ice-dammed lake through a supraglacial stream: hydraulics and thermodynamics [PDF]
The glacier-dammed Lac des Faverges, located on Glacier de la Plaine Morte (Swiss Alps), has drained annually as a glacier lake outburst flood since 2011. In 2018, the lake volume reached more than 2 × 106 m3, and the resulting flood caused damage to the

Decision Making Under Uncertainty in Systems Hydrology
Design of engineering projects involve a certain amount of uncertainty. How should design decisions be taken in face of the uncertainty? What is the most efficient way of handling the data?

Modelling supraglacial debris-cover evolution from the single-glacier to the regional scale: an application to High Mountain Asia [PDF]
Currently, about 12 %–13 % of High Mountain Asia’s glacier area is debris-covered, which alters its surface mass balance. However, in regional-scale modelling approaches, debris-covered glaciers are typically treated as clean-ice glaciers, leading to a ...

Forest Hydrology and Watershed [PDF]
Hydrological processes in forested watersheds are influenced by environmental, physiological, and biometric factors such as precipitation, radiation, temperature, species type, leaf area, and extent and structure of forest ecosystems. Over the past two centuries, forest coverage and forest structures have been impacted globally by anthropogenic ...

European heat waves 2022: contribution to extreme glacier melt in Switzerland inferred from automated ablation readings [PDF]
Accelerating glacier melt rates were observed during the last decades. Substantial ice loss occurs particularly during heat waves that are expected to intensify in the future.

Tropical forest hydrology and the role of the UNESCO International Hydrological Programme [PDF]
The paper outlines a perspective on tropical forest hydrology within the context of an international hydrological programme. Experience in tropical forest hydrology research in North East Australia is a focal point for comparison with international ...
