Record #74394:

Meteorological conditions that initiate slushflows in the central Brooks Range, Alaska / Lawrence J. Onesti.

Title: Meteorological conditions that initiate slushflows in the central Brooks Range, Alaska / Lawrence J. Onesti.
Author(s): Onesti, Lawrence J.
Date: 1985.
Publisher: Cambridge: International Glaciological Society
In: Annals of Glaciology. (1985.), Vol. 6 (1985)
Abstract: Over 30 slushflows (movement of water-saturated snow) were documented, and observations made of high and low flow rates during 1979-81 at Atigun Pass. Rates appear to be closely linked with meteorological conditions conducive to rapid melting of snowpack.
Notes:

Annals of Glaciology. Vol. 6 :23-25 (1985).

Keywords: 551.578.46 -- Snow cover and snow patches.
539.3 -- Ice, mechanical properties.
E10 -- Glaciology: snow and avalanches.
