Method Dependence in Thermal Conductivity and Aerodynamic Roughness Length Estimates on a Debris‐Covered Glacier

Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 130, Issue 6, June 2025.
Abstract Rock debris partially covers glaciers worldwide, with varying extents and distributions, and controls sub‐debris melt rates by modifying energy transfer from the atmosphere to the ice. Two key physical properties controlling this energy exchange are thermal conductivity (k) $(k)$ and aerodynamic roughness length z0 $\left({z}_{0}\right ...
