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 ...

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 ...

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.

Brief communication: Do 1.0, 1.5, or 2.0 °C matter for the future evolution of Alpine glaciers? [PDF]
With the Paris Agreement, the urgency of limiting ongoing anthropogenic climate change has been recognised. More recent discussions have focused on the difference of limiting the increase in global average temperatures below 1.0, 1.5, or 2.0 ∘C compared ...

Variability of phenology and fluxes of water and carbon with observed and simulated soil moisture in the Ent Terrestrial Biosphere Model (Ent TBM version 1.0.1.0.0) [PDF]
The Ent Terrestrial Biosphere Model (Ent TBM) is a mixed-canopy dynamic global vegetation model developed specifically for coupling with land surface hydrology and general circulation models (GCMs).

Assimilating near-real-time mass balance stake readings into a model ensemble using a particle filter [PDF]
Short-term glacier variations can be important for water supplies or hydropower production, and glaciers are important indicators of climate change. This is why the interest in near-real-time mass balance nowcasting is considerable. Here, we address this

Regional assessment of forest effect on watershed hydrology: Slovakia as a case study
Recently, the importance of forest effect on watershed hydrology has been increasingly recognized due to an elevated threat of floods and expected alterations of water regime in watersheds induced by climate change.
