Modelling runoff from the maritime arctic cryopshere: Water storage and routing at Midtree Lovenbreen

Modelling runoff from the maritime arctic cryopshere: Water storage and routing at Midtree Lovenbreen

Recent research at Arctic latitudes has demonstrated the close association between glacier hydrology and ice dynamics and a resultant sensitivity of high-latitude ice masses to climatic forcing. However, both hydraulic architecture and functionality remain poorly characterised or constrained in thes...
