Phosphatase activity and organic phosphorus turnover on a high Arctic glacier [PDF]

Biogeosciences, 2009
Arctic glacier surfaces harbour abundant microbial communities consisting mainly of heterotrophic and photoautotrophic bacteria. The microbes must cope with low concentrations of nutrients and with the fact that both the dissolved and debris-bound ...

In-situ and modelled debris thickness distribution on Panchi Nala Glacier (western Himalaya, India) and its impact on glacier state

Quaternary Science Advances
This study presents extensive in-situ debris thickness measurements over the Panchi Nala Glacier (western Himalaya, India) and models its spatial distribution using remote sensing and ERA-5 reanalysis data.

Ground-penetrating radar measurements of debris thickness on Lirung Glacier, Nepal

Journal of Glaciology, 2017
Supraglacial debris thickness is a key control on the surface energy balance of debris-covered glaciers, yet debris thickness measurements are sparse due to difficulties of data collection.

Debris covered glacier mapping using newly annotated multisource remote sensing data and geo-foundational model

Science of Remote Sensing
The automated mapping of debris covered glaciers remains challenging due to spectral similarity between supraglacial debris (on-glaciers) and periglacial debris (off-glaciers).

THE DARK SIDE OF THE ICE: GLACIOLOGICAL AND BIOLOGICAL ASPECTS OF SUPRAGLACIAL DEBRIS

, 2017
This research deals with a multi-disciplinary analysis of the supraglacial debris. Debris significantly influences the evolution of glacier surface, its energy balance, and the carbon fluxes and storage. In this work through a multi-disciplinary approach, we focused on this dark side of the glaciers from two different points of view: the glaciological ...

Multi‐Year Glaciological and Meteorological Observations on Debris‐Covered Kennicott Glacier, Alaska, 2016–2023

Geoscience Data Journal
Despite increasing availability of satellite‐derived products, in situ glacier observations are pivotal to accurately monitor glacier change and to calibrate and validate glacier models.
