An energy-balance model for debris-covered glaciers including heat conduction through the debris layer

TD Reid, BW Brock - Journal of Glaciology, 2010 - cambridge.org
Extensive covers of supraglacial debris are often present in glacier ablation areas, and it is
essential to assess exactly how the debris affects glacier melt rates. This paper presents a …

Debris thickness patterns on debris-covered glaciers

LS Anderson, RS Anderson - Geomorphology, 2018 - Elsevier
Many debris-covered glaciers have broadly similar debris thickness patterns: surface debris
thickens and tends to transition from convex-to concave-up-down glacier. We explain this …

Geomorphological evolution of a debris‐covered glacier surface

MJ Westoby, DR Rounce, TE Shaw… - Earth Surface …, 2020 - Wiley Online Library
There exists a need to advance our understanding of debris‐covered glacier surfaces over

Including debris cover effects in a distributed model of glacier ablation

TD Reid, M Carenzo, F Pellicciotti… - Journal of Geophysical …, 2012 - Wiley Online Library
Distributed glacier melt models generally assume that the glacier surface consists of bare
exposed ice and snow. In reality, many glaciers are wholly or partially covered in layers of …
