The Influence of Air Temperature Inversions on Snowmelt and Glacier Mass Balance Simulations, Ammassalik Island, Southeast Greenland
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In many applications, a realistic description of air temperature inversions is essential for accurate snow and glacier ice melt, and glacier mass-balance simulations. A physically based snow evolution modeling system ...
Greenland Freshwater Runoff. Part I: A Runoff Routing Model for Glaciated and Nonglaciated Landscapes (HydroFlow)
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: gridded linear-reservoir runoff routing model (HydroFlow) was developed to simulate the linkages between runoff production from land-based snowmelt and icemelt processes and the associated freshwater fluxes to downstream ...
Greenland Freshwater Runoff. Part II: Distribution and Trends, 1960–2010
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: unoff magnitudes, the spatial patterns from individual Greenland catchments, and their changes through time (1960?2010) were simulated in an effort to understand runoff variations to adjacent seas and to illustrate the ...
Northern Hemisphere Glacier and Ice Cap Surface Mass Balance and Contribution to Sea Level Rise
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ass changes and mass contribution to sea level rise from glaciers and ice caps (GIC) are key components of the earth?s changing sea level. GIC surface mass balance (SMB) magnitudes and individual and regional mean conditions ...
Greenland Ice Sheet Surface Mass-Balance Modeling in a 131-Yr Perspective, 1950–2080
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Fluctuations in the Greenland ice sheet (GrIS) surface mass balance (SMB) and freshwater influx to the surrounding oceans closely follow climate fluctuations and are of considerable importance to the global eustatic sea ...
Surface Melt Area and Water Balance Modeling on the Greenland Ice Sheet 1995–2005
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: SnowModel, a physically based snow-evolution modeling system that includes four submodels?MicroMet, EnBal, SnowPack, and SnowTran-3D?was used to simulate variations in Greenland [including the Greenland Ice Sheet (GrIS)] ...
Annual River Runoff Variations and Trends for the Andes Cordillera
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractWe analyzed modeled river runoff variations west of the Andes Cordillera?s continental divide for 1979/80?2013/14 (35 years). Our foci were annual runoff conditions, runoff origins (rain, snowmelt, and glacier ice), ...
Surface Mass Balance and Runoff Modeling Using HIRHAM4 RCM at Kangerlussuaq (Søndre Strømfjord), West Greenland, 1950–2080
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A regional atmospheric model, the HIRHAM4 regional climate model (RCM) using boundary conditions from the ECHAM5 atmosphere?ocean general circulation model (AOGCM), was downscaled to a 500-m gridcell increment using SnowModel ...
Snow Distribution and Melt Modeling for Mittivakkat Glacier, Ammassalik Island, Southeast Greenland
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A physically based snow-evolution modeling system (SnowModel) that includes four submodels?the Micrometeorological Model (MicroMet), EnBal, SnowPack, and SnowTran-3D?was used to simulate five full-year evolutions of snow ...
Freshwater Flux and Spatiotemporal Simulated Runoff Variability into Ilulissat Icefjord, West Greenland, Linked to Salinity and Temperature Observations near Tidewater Glacier Margins Obtained Using Instrumented Ringed Seals
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he distribution of terrestrial surface runoff to Ilulissat Icefjord, west Greenland, is simulated for the period 2009?13 to better emphasize the spatiotemporal variability in freshwater flux and the link between runoff ...
