Determination of Stratiform Cloud Formation and its Effect upon Glacial Ablation at Linnébreen, Svalbard for the Summer of 2005
The intent of this study is to investigate the formation and organization of Arctic stratiform clouds due to their critical role as a climate forcing mechanism in a warming Polar Basin as well as their impact upon the glacial mass balance. For four weeks in the summer of 2005, meteorological and ins...
