Description
Summary:In this letter, we present surface mass-balance measurements carried out by members of the Institute for Marine and Atmospheric Research of Utrecht University (IMAU) along the Kangerlussuaq (Sondre Stromfjord, in Danish) transect (K-transect), located on the western part of the Greenland ice sheet along 67° N. At present, these measurements comprise 10 years (1990-2000), which makes them longer than any other published time series of mass-balance measurements in Greenland.
