An assessment of basin-scale glaciological and hydrological sensitivities in the Hindu Kush–Himalaya

Annals of Glaciology, 2016
Glacier responses to future climate change will affect hydrology at sub-basin scales. The main goal of this study is to assess glaciological and hydrological sensitivities of sub-basins throughout the Hindu Kush-Himalaya region.

Controls on the diurnal streamflow cycles in two subbasins of an alpine headwater catchment [PDF]

, 2015
In high-altitude alpine catchments, diurnal streamflow cycles are typically dominated by snowmelt or ice melt. Evapotranspiration-induced diurnal streamflow cycles are less observed in these catchments but might happen simultaneously.

Spatial Variability of Permafrost and Active Layer Thickness in a Forested Hillslope of the Taiga Shield

Permafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Under continued climate warming, understanding present‐day permafrost distribution and the controls on ground thaw are critical for predicting permafrost thaw trajectories and associated implications. This study presents a high‐resolution investigation of permafrost extent and active layer thickness (ALT) across a coniferous forested hillslope

A Statistical‐Process Hybridized Approach to Modeling Permafrost Distribution in a Boreal Wetland Ecosystem, Whatì, NT, Canada

Permafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT High‐resolution mapping of permafrost in ecologically and topographically complex landscapes remains a major challenge. Existing models of permafrost extent often rely on equilibrium assumptions, which can misrepresent conditions in regions where permafrost persists largely due to ecosystem structure.

Turbulent snow transport and accumulation: New reduced‐order models and diagnostics

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Our new reduced‐order models of snow particle transport provide high‐fidelity calculations of snow accumulation in turbulent flows at significantly reduced computational costs. Additional accumulation diagnostics from the reduced‐order model predict complex patterns of particle concentration in turbulent boundary layers via coherent flow structures in ...

Basal Sliding and Hydrological Drainage at Baltoro Glacier

, 2023
Abstract. Surface meltwater directly influences glacier velocity, as liquid water at the bed allows the glacier to slide. However, prolonged discharge of water at the bed increases the efficiency of the drainage system and decreases the amount of sliding.
