Simulating the climatic mass balance of Svalbard glaciers from 2003 to 2013 with a high-resolution coupled atmosphere-glacier model
In this study we simulate the climatic mass bal- ance of Svalbard glaciers with a coupled atmosphere–glacier model with 3 km grid spacing, from September 2003 to September 2013. We find a mean specific net mass bal- ance of − 257 mm w.e. yr − 1 , corresponding to a mean annual mass loss of about 8.7...
