The two parts of mass balance, inputs and outputs, are now considered together. Budget estimates are provided for Biafo Glacier and from partial data for Batura, Baltoro and some others. Overall quantities reflect the greater moisture availability and mass inputs at high elevations in the Karakoram.

Modelling of Glacier Mass Balance
1993The energy balance of the ice/snow surface is the dominating factor with regard to mass balance of glaciers in warm environments (currently all ice outside Antarctica). It is shown that an energy balance model is able to generate realistic mass-balance profiles from climate data for glaciers in widely differing climatic settings.

Dynamics and mass balance of Taylor Glacier, Antarctica: 3. State of mass balance
Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, 2009Taylor Glacier flows from the East Antarctic Ice Sheet and terminates in the McMurdo Dry Valleys, where it has left a geomorphologic record of past incursions. Here we use new data on the flow, thickness, and surface balance of Taylor Glacier to calculate ice fluxes and assess the current state of mass balance.

Glacier Mass Balance I: Snowfall and Glacier Nourishment
2013The inputs to glacier mass balance and phenomena that influence them in the Karakoram are considered in this chapter. Snowfall in the source areas of the glaciers is the first concern. Observations at Biafo Glacier, an Alpine type, offer a rare, relatively detailed quantification of high-altitude snowfall in the accumulation zone.

The mass balance of glacier de Sarennes
2008Les variations de masse des glaciers sont des indicateurs climatiques sensibles et bien adaptés à l'étude des changements du climat à haute altitude. La série des bilans de masse du glacier de Sarennes (Alpes françaises) initiée en 1949 est l'une des plus anciennes série enregistrée dans le monde et inclus les 2 composantes saisonnières du bilan ...

Energy-balance modeling of glacier mass balance in Iceland
The detailed, physically-based, one-dimensional snowpack model SURFEX/ISBA-Crocus was used to simulate the seasonal and annual surface mass balance (SMB) of the five largest Icelandic glaciers (Vatnajökull, Langjökull, Hofsjökull, Mýrdalsjökull and Drangajökull) for the period of 1990–2024, for which annual mass-balance measurements are available.Tarek Zaqout +2 more
