Factors delaying spring runoff in the upper Ürümqi river basin, China / Richard Kattelmann, Daqing Yang.
Title: | Factors delaying spring runoff in the upper Ürümqi river basin, China / Richard Kattelmann, Daqing Yang. |
Author(s): | Kattelmann, Richard. Yang, Daqing. |
Date: | 1992. |
In: | Annals of Glaciology. (1992.), Vol. 16 (1992) |
Abstract: | Illustrates physical controls on initial production of snowmelt runoff in high-altitude catchment. Five to 15 days of delay in streamflow generation may be due to refreezing in snow cover, creation of basal ice layer at snow--soil interface, growth of superimposed ice on glaciers of basin, ice formation in stream channels and restoration of high albedo by snowstorms that occur about once weekly in spring. |
