Glacio-meteorological investigations on Storbreen, Norway.
Glacio-meteorological investigations were conducted on Storbreen glacier, as an attempt to assess the relationship between meteorological conditions at the glacier surface and its mass balance. Primary focus was set on the mass balance year 2010/11 and in situ investigation conducted over the summer...
