Field-based research directions for investigating the interior of high-elevation debris-covered glaciers
Abstract The debris that covers the ablation areas of high-elevation debris-covered glaciers contributes to the distinctive features and processes occurring both on and within such glaciers. Despite recent advances, knowledge of the subsurface environments of high-elevation debris-covered glaciers i...
