Record #213942:

Assessment of current methods of positive degree-day calculation using in situ observations from glaciated regions / L.M. Wake, S.J. Marshall.

Title: Assessment of current methods of positive degree-day calculation using in situ observations from glaciated regions / L.M. Wake, S.J. Marshall.
Author(s): Wake, L. M.
Marshall, S. J.
Date: 2015.
In: Journal of Glaciology. (2015.), Vol. 61(226) (2015)
Abstract: Revisits assumptions governing application of positive degree-day (PDD) method to predict ice-sheet melt. Tests assumption that monthly PDD total can be represented by Gaussian distribution with fixed standard deviation of monthly temperature. Offers alternative methodology and uses it to predict PDD for Greenland. Discusses improvement observed.
