Modelling of mass balances in Norwegian glaciers / Tron Laumann, Michael I. Kennett.

Title: Modelling of mass balances in Norwegian glaciers / Tron Laumann, Michael I. Kennett.
Author(s): Laumann, Tron.
Kennett, Michael I.
Date: 1992.
In: Eos : transactions, American Geophysical Union. (1992.), Vol. 73(43, fall meeting supplement) (1992)
Abstract: Abstract only. From total of almost 1600 glaciers. network of observed glaciers was established in 1962, which now consists of 12 glaciers. Three of these form west-east transect at 62°N and show varying mass-balance trend over last 30 years. Degree-day mass-balance model has been adapted to Norwegian climate conditions and has been calibrated for each transect glacier. Model has now been used to estimate mass balance for various climate scenarios. Shows that maritime glaciers are more sensitive to temperature and precipitation changes than continental glaciers.
