MARC recordInferring glacier mass balance using RADARSAT: results from Peyto glacier, Canada / Michael Demuth, Alain Pietroniro.
| Title: | Inferring glacier mass balance using RADARSAT: results from Peyto glacier, Canada / Michael Demuth, Alain Pietroniro. |
| Author(s): | Demuth, Michael. Pietroniro, Alain. |
| 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. Reports on use of RADARSAT synthetic aperture radar (SAR) in mapping snow-line accumulation area for Peyto Glacier, Alberta, Canada. Though RADARSAT can distinguish between firn and bare ice facies, problems of accuracy, particularly in defining equilibrium-line altitude (ELA), are discussed in detail. |
