| Title: | Recent fluctuations of glaciers in Valtellina (Italian Alps) and climatic variations / Manuela Pelfini, Claudio Smiraglia. |
| Author(s): | Pelfini, Manuela. Smiraglia, Claudio. |
| Date: | 1992. |
| In: | Journal of Glaciology. (1992.), Vol. 38(129) (1992) |
| Abstract: | Terminal variations have been recorded since 1925; rapid retreat occurred between 1925 and early 1970s, followed by period of advance until second half of 1980s. Period from 1925 to 1932 was very warm, and then temperatures dropped. Most intense winter precipitation occurred between 1925 and 1937. Behaviour of glaciers is similar to that of other Alpine glaciers, although time of response may be different. |
