Ice-sheet melting is the primary water source for the proglacial Watson River in southern west Greenland. Discharge from the large, approximately 12,000 km 2 ice-sheet catchment draining through the Watson River has been monitored since 2006. While this record is of respectable length for a Greenlan...
