Language: | Russian transliteration entered into original records using BGN/PCGN 1947 romanisation of Russian; Cyrillic text in MARC 880 field(s) reverse transliterated from this by automated process; BGN/PCGN 1947 text then upgraded to Library of Congress romanisation. |
In: | Materialy Gli︠a︡t︠s︡iologicheskikh Issledovaniĭ. (2005.), Vol. 99 (2005) |
Abstract: | Provides overview of presently observed rates of change in worldwide mass balance of mountain glaciers, corresponding trends and regional peculiarities, such as extremely hot and dry central European summer of 2003. Briefly describes glacier monitoring systems and networks. Summarises and discusses worldwide mass balance observations from 1980-2001. Presents in some detail extraordinary situation in central Europe during 2003, discussing weather, snowfall and glacier mass balances and importance of event in context of predicted climate change scenarios. Concludes glacier melt continues at "considerable and most probably accelerating rate". |
