Application of an improved surface energy balance model to two large valley glaciers in the St. Elias Mountains, Yukon

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 2021
Glacier surficial melt rates are commonly modelled using surface energy balance (SEB) models, with outputs applied to extend point-based mass-balance measurements to regional scales, assess water resource availability, examine supraglacial hydrology and ...

Variability of the surface energy balance in permafrost-underlain boreal forest [PDF]

open access: yesBiogeosciences, 2021
Boreal forests in permafrost regions make up around one-third of the global forest cover and are an essential component of regional and global climate patterns.

Processes governing the mass balance of Chhota Shigri Glacier (western Himalaya, India) assessed by point-scale surface energy balance measurements [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2014
Some recent studies revealed that Himalayan glaciers were shrinking at an accelerated rate since the beginning of the 21st century. However, the climatic causes for this shrinkage remain unclear given that surface energy balance studies are almost ...

The surface energy balance of Austre Lovénbreen, Svalbard, during the ablation period in 2014

open access: yesPolar Research, 2021
The ability to simulate the surface energy balance is key to studying land–atmosphere interactions; however, it remains a weakness in Arctic polar sciences.

Numerical study of climate characteristics on the residential scale energy balance based on some typical cities [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2022
The energy balance of residential blocks in different climate zones is simulated and analysed. The influence of climate characteristics on the residential-scale energy budget is clarified, and the temporal evolution patterns of sensible heat flux, latent

Exploring the Ecological Climate Effects Based on Five Land Use Types: A Case Study of the Huang-Huai-Hai River Basin in China

open access: yesLand, 2022
As one of the main driving forces for the change in surface energy balance, land use and cover change affects the ecological climate through different levels of biogeochemical and physical processes.

Summertime influences of tidal energy advection on the surface energy balance in a mangrove forest [PDF]

open access: yesBiogeosciences, 2013
Mangrove forests are ecosystems susceptible to changing water levels and temperatures due to climate change as well as perturbations resulting from tropical storms.

Modeling the snow surface temperature with a one-layer energy balance snowmelt model [PDF]

open access: yesHydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2014
Snow surface temperature is a key control on and result of dynamically coupled energy exchanges at the snow surface. The snow surface temperature is the result of the balance between external forcing (incoming radiation) and energy exchanges above the ...

COSIPY v1.3 – an open-source coupled snowpack and ice surface energy and mass balance model [PDF]

open access: yesGeoscientific Model Development, 2020
Glacier changes are a vivid example of how environmental systems react to a changing climate. Distributed surface mass balance models, which translate the meteorological conditions on glaciers into local melting rates, help to attribute and detect ...
