Dye tracing and modelling jökulhlaups / Mauro A. Werder.
Title: | Dye tracing and modelling jökulhlaups / Mauro A. Werder. |
Author(s): | Werder, Mauro A. |
Date: | 2009. |
Abstract: | Presents experimental study of drainage system of Gornergletscher, Switzerland, using tracing of dye introduced via moulins over three field seasons and related hydrological measurements. Focuses on drainage of ice-marginal lake Gornersee, responsible for yearly jökulhlaups. Also assesses hazard associated with newly-formed supraglacial lake on Unterer Grindelwaldgletscher, describing early warning system and preventive measures. |
Notes: | Offprint: Eidgenössischen Technischen Hochschule Zürich. Versuchsanstalt für Wasserbau, Hydrologie und Glaziologie. Mitteilungen. Vol. 214 :1-138. Published version of doctoral thesis. |
