Role of supraglacial ponds in the ablation process of a debris-covered glacier in the Nepal Himalayas / Akiko Sakai, Nozomu Takeuchi, Koji Fujita, Masayoshi Nakawo.
Title: | Role of supraglacial ponds in the ablation process of a debris-covered glacier in the Nepal Himalayas / Akiko Sakai, Nozomu Takeuchi, Koji Fujita, Masayoshi Nakawo. |
Author(s): | Sakai, Akiko. Takeuchi, Nozomu. Fujita, Koji. Nakawo, Masayoshi. |
Date: | 2000. |
Publisher: | Wallingford, Oxfordshire: IASH Press |
In: | Debris-covered glaciers : proceedings of an international workshop held at the University of Washington in Seattle, Washington USA, 13-15 September 2000. (2000.), |
Abstract: | Results from heat budget observations on pond on Lirung Glacier, Nepal give absorption rate 7 times average for whole debris-covered zone. Half of heat absorbed at pond surface is released by water outflow, pointing to enlarging of englacial conduit draining water from pond and so leading to internal ablation. If roof of conduit then collapses, new formations would accelerate ablation. |
