Using daily air temperature thresholds to evaluate snow melting occurrence and amount on Alpine glaciers by <i>T</i>-index models: the case study of the Forni Glacier (Italy)
Glacier melt conditions (i.e., null surface temperature and positive energy budget) can be assessed by analyzing data acquired by a supraglacial automatic weather station (AWS), such as the station installed on the surface of Forni Glacier (Italian Alps). When an AWS is not present, the assessment o...
