MARC recordAnnual mass balance of Blue Glacier, USA: 1955-97 / H. Conway, L.A. Rasmussen, H.-P. Marshall.
| Title: | Annual mass balance of Blue Glacier, USA: 1955-97 / H. Conway, L.A. Rasmussen, H.-P. Marshall. |
| Author(s): | Conway, H. Rasmussen, L. A. Marshall, H. -P. |
| Date: | 1999. |
| In: | Geografiska Annaler. Series A. Physical Geography. (1999.), Vol. 81A(4) (1999) |
| Abstract: | In special issue on Methods of Mass Balance Measurements and Modelling. Calculates long-term mass changes of Blue Glacier, USA from changes of surface altitude derived from topographic maps and laser altimetry, 1939-97. Mass has changed by less than 7 m (water equivalent) over 56 year period. Discusses discrepancies between calculated and field measurements. Mass balance of Blue Glacier was positive to mid-1970s, negative since, following estimation of snowfall, and climate trends. |
