Glacier fragmentation effects on surface energy balance and runoff: field measurements and distributed modelling

Abstract In order to assess glacier runoff to the Upper Columbia River Basin (UCRB) and quantify energy balance effects of tributary‐trunk detachment due to recession, we used field observations to develop a distributed melt model of Shackleton Glacier, Canadian Rockies. Field data were derived from...
