MARC recordResponse of a Montenegro glacier to extreme summer heatwaves in 2003 and 2007 / Philip D. Hughes.
| Title: | Response of a Montenegro glacier to extreme summer heatwaves in 2003 and 2007 / Philip D. Hughes. |
| Author(s): | Hughes, Philip D. |
| Date: | 2008. |
| In: | Geografiska Annaler. Series A. Physical Geography. (2008.), Vol. 4 (2008) |
| Abstract: | Examines recent fluctuations of Debeli Namet glacier in Durmitor massif, one of lowest altitude glaciers (2050-2300 m) in latitude range 42°-44°N. Glacier survives well below climatological equilibrium line because of inputs from avalanching and wind-blown snow. Notes significant retreat as result of hot summers 2003 and 2007, with advances in intervening years in which summers were cooler. Examines: climate trends in Montenegro during 20th and 21st centuries using meteorological records; relationships between climate changes reflected in these records and glacier behaviour; role of local climatic controls on glacier formation at this site. |
| Notes: | Geografiska Annaler. Series A. Physical Geography. Vol. 4 :259-267 (2008). |
