  1. 51. Thermodynamics of the Subsurface of Glaciers with Insights from Lomonosovfonna Ice Field at Svalbard

    Kandidat-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Luft-, vatten- och landskapslära

    Författare :Enise Shala; Caroline Svanholm; [2018]
    Nyckelord :temperature; glacier; refreezing; thermal conductivity; simulation; temperatur; glaciär; återfrysning; värmeledningsförmåga; simulering;

    Sammanfattning : Glaciers are important components of the Earth's environment and are mainly found in polar and high elevation areas. They are crucial for understanding the past, ongoing and upcoming environmental changes, relevant for fresh water supply, logistical and recreational purposes. LÄS MER

  3. 52. Modeling response of glacier discharge to future climate change, Gacier No.1, Ürümqi

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Författare :Shi Jieying; [2018]
    Nyckelord :sustainable development; climate change; glacier; discharge model; water supply;

    Sammanfattning : Glaciers are known to be prone to climate change. The Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region, China, has approximately 20,000 glaciers, which accounts for half number of glaciers in China. LÄS MER

  4. 53. Glacial history of the upper Drac Blanc catchment (French Alps)

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Författare :Felix Martin Hofmann; [2018]
    Nyckelord :Physical Geography; 10Be exposure dating; structure-from motion; geomorphological mapping; moraine; equilibrium line altitude; Alps; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Glacier advances in the Écrins massif (French Alps) during the Late Glacial and the Early Holocene are poorly constrained. Based on field observations, a high-resolution digital elevation model and an orthophoto, glacial landforms in the upper Drac Blanc catchment were mapped. LÄS MER

  5. 54. Periglacial and glacial landform mapping in the Las Veguitas catchment, Cordillera Frondal of the Andes (Argentina).

    Master-uppsats, Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi

    Författare :Eirini Makopoulou; [2018]
    Nyckelord :Geomorphological map; thermokarst lakes; glaciers; GIS; Argentinian Andes; spatial and temporal analysis;

    Sammanfattning : The semi-arid and arid Andes of South America are characterized by large areas with glacial and periglacial environments. This study focusses on the distribution of glacial and periglacial landforms in the Las Veguitas catchment, Cordillera Frontal, Argentina. LÄS MER

  7. 55. Different generation of controlled moraines in the glacier foreland of Midtdalsbreen, Norway

    Master-uppsats, Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi

    Författare :Xavier Allègre; [2018]
    Nyckelord :Glacial sedimentology; glaciology; geomorphology; palaeoenvironmental reconstruction;

    Sammanfattning : A series of small mounds (< 3m) were sampled in the foreland of Midtdalsbreen outlet glacier, southern Norway. These landforms were interesting, especially at site number 1 because they were located very close to a higher Little Ice Age (LIA) moraine (> 5 m), thereby informing the dynamic of the glacier after the LIA at this location.
