Journal of Glaciology, 2020 We present a newly developed 1-D numerical energy-balance and phase transition supraglacial lake model: GlacierLake. GlacierLake incorporates snowfall, in situ snow and ice melt, incoming water from the surrounding catchment, ice lid formation, basal ...

Annals of Glaciology, 2022 Subglacial hydrology is an important component of the ice dynamic system in Antarctica but is challenging to investigate due to the large spatial scales of the catchment systems, the ice thickness, and remote location.

Crater glaciers on active volcanoes: Hydrological anomalies [PDF]
Eos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 2005 Mount St. Helens is an active volcano that hosts glacier ice within its crater. Although the common picture of volcano/glacier interactions is one of rapid meltwater generation when hot material is brought into contact with snow and ice [e.g.,Major and Newhall, 1989], there have been practically no observable hydrological consequences of the ongoing ...

Do debris-covered glaciers demonstrate distinctive hydrological behaviour compared to clean glaciers? [PDF]
Journal of Hydrology, 2019 Supraglacial debris is known to strongly influence the distribution of glacier surface melt. Since melt inputs drive the formation and evolution of glacial drainage systems, it should follow that the drainage systems of debris-covered glaciers will differ from those of debris-free glaciers. This would have implications for the proglacial runoff regime,

Rapid mass loss and disappearance of summer-accumulation type hanging glacier
Advances in Climate Change Research, 2022 Hanging glaciers hold the absolute dominant number in West China and their changes had important influences on local hydrology, sea-level rise and natural hazards (snow/ice avalanches).

The spread of non‐native species
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The global redistribution of species through human agency is one of the defining ecological signatures of the Anthropocene, with biological invasions reshaping biodiversity patterns, ecosystem processes and services, and species interactions globally.

Water Resources ResearchThe Indian Summer Monsoon (ISM) and meltwater from the Himalayan are the two most important sources of water in the Indian subcontinent. However, the impact of ISM on Himalayan glaciers and subsequent stream hydrology remains largely unknown.

Simulating seasonal evolution of subglacial hydrology at a surging glacier in the Karakoram
Journal of GlaciologyGlacier motion, retreat and glacier hazards such as surges and glacial lake outburst floods (GLOFs) are likely underpinned by subglacial hydrology. Recent advances in subglacial hydrological modeling allow us to shed light on subglacial processes that ...

Ice thickness estimates of Lemon Creek Glacier, Alaska, from active-source seismic imaging
Journal of Glaciology, 2021 Lemon Creek Glacier, a temperate valley glacier in the Juneau Icefield of Southeast Alaska, is the site of long running (>60 years) glaciological studies.
