The distribution of basal motion beneath a High Arctic polythermal glacier [PDF]

, 2003
The longitudinal pattern of surface velocity of a large, predominantly colds polythermal glacier (John Evans Glacier, Ellesmere Island, Canada) was measured over summer and winter periods.

The state of glacier hydrology research in Canada

Canadian Water Resources Journal / Revue canadienne des ressources hydriques, 2023
Glaciers across Canada are rapidly retreating, engendering significant implications for glacier-fed hydrological systems, ranging from aquatic ecology and groundwater recharge to downstream economic activities and traditional cultural values. Despite a well-developed body of literature regarding glacio-hydrological systems and dynamics, there has been ...

Representing moisture fluxes and phase changes in glacier debris cover using a reservoir approach [PDF]

, 2014
Due to the complexity of treating moisture in supraglacial debris, surface energy balance models to date have neglected moisture infiltration and phase changes in the debris layer.

Implementation of a process-based catchment model in a poorly gauged, highly glacierized Himalayan headwater [PDF]

Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2007
The paper presents a catchment modeling approach for remote glacierized Himalayan catchments. The distributed catchment model TACD, which is widely based on the HBV model, was further developed for the application in highly glacierized catchments on a ...

Snow and glacier hydrology [PDF]

Eos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 2001
The study of snow and ice is rich in both fundamental science and practical applications. Snow and Glacier Hydrology offers something for everyone, from resource practitioners in regions where water supply depends on seasonal snow pack or glaciers, to research scientists seeking to understand the role of the solid phase in the water cycle and climate ...

Canadian Glacier Hydrology, 2003-2007 [PDF]

Canadian Water Resources Journal, 2009
Glacier hydrological research in Canada from 2002-2007 continues to advance, driven by new observations of glacier retreat in all regions of the country. New observation networks have been formed to study various aspects of glacier change and linkages with the hydrological system.

Impact of changes in climate and glacier configurations on runoff from the Langtang River basin, Nepal [PDF]

Proceedings of the International Association of Hydrological Sciences
Climate change is rapidly altering Himalayan glaciers, jeopardizing downstream water resources. This study investigates the impact of changing air temperatures, precipitation, and glacier configurations on streamflow in the Langtang River basin, a vital ...

Effects of undercutting and sliding on calving: a global approach applied to Kronebreen, Svalbard [PDF]

The Cryosphere, 2018
In this paper, we study the effects of basal friction, sub-aqueous undercutting and glacier geometry on the calving process by combining six different models in an offline-coupled workflow: a continuum–mechanical ice flow model (Elmer/Ice), a climatic

Geological and glacial-hydrologic controls on chemical weathering in the subglacial environment

Annals of Glaciology, 2022
A comparison of major ion chemistry of subglacial boreholes and discharging subglacial waters reveals three fundamentally different glacier hydrochemical regimes.

A semi-automated, GIS-based framework for the mapping of supraglacial hydrology

Journal of Glaciology, 2023
Supraglacial drainage networks play an integral role in both glacier dynamics and run-off timing, and mapping them provides insight into their role in glacial systems.
