Technical note: Representing glacier geometry changes in a semi-distributed hydrological model [PDF]

open access: yesHydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2018
Glaciers play an important role in high-mountain hydrology. While changing glacier areas are considered of highest importance for the understanding of future changes in runoff, glaciers are often only poorly represented in hydrological models.

Influence of subglacial drainage system evolution on glacier surface motion: Haut Glacier d'Arolla, Switzerland [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
The relationship between the evolution of subglacial drainage system morphology and spatial patterns of glacier surface velocity was investigated using dye tracing experiments and ground surveying throughout the 1995 melt season at Haut Glacier d'Arolla,

The contribution of glacier melt to streamflow

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2012
Ongoing and projected future changes in glacier volume and extent globally have led to concerns about the implications for water supplies. Glacier contributions to river discharge are not well known on a regional or global basis, nor are the populations ...

Over-winter persistence of supraglacial lakes on the Greenland Ice Sheet: results and insights from a new model

open access: yesJournal 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 ...

Do debris-covered glaciers demonstrate distinctive hydrological behaviour compared to clean glaciers? [PDF]

open access: yesJournal 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,

Effect of Hedging-Integrated Rule Curves on the Performance of the Pong Reservoir (India) During Scenario-Neutral Climate Change Perturbations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
This study has evaluated the effects of improved, hedging-integrated reservoir rule curves on the current and climate-change-perturbed future performances of the Pong reservoir, India.

Decoupling climate and human impacts on the nitrogen cycle during the Irish Bronze Age

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Disentangling climate variability and human activity in past nitrogen cycling is key to understanding ecosystems. Previous studies in Ireland observed a widespread, permanent shift in terrestrial nitrogen cycling during Later Prehistory, potentially linked to intensifying land‐use.

Isotope Hydrograph Separation Reveals Rainfall on the Glaciers Will Enhance Ice Meltwater Discharge to the Himalayan Rivers

open access: yesWater Resources Research
The 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.

The role of subglacial hydrology in Antarctic ice sheet dynamics and stability: a modelling perspective

open access: yesAnnals 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.

Assessment of different modelling studies on the spatial hydrological processes in an arid alpine catchment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
To assess the model description of spatial hydrological processes in the arid alpine catchment, SWAT and MIKE SHE were jointly applied in Yarkant River basin located in northwest China.
