A theoretical approach to glacier equilibrium-line altitudes using meteorological data and glacier massbalance
Based on a close exponential relationship between mean ablation-season temperature and winter precipitation at the equilibrium-line altitude (ELA) of 10 Norwegian glaciers, three equations are derived. The first equation enables calculation of the minimum altitude of areas climatically suited for gl...
