Annual Mass Balance of Blue Glacier, USA: 1955-97
Mass changes of Blue Glacier, USA are calculated from topographic maps made from vertical aerial photography in late summer of 1939, 1952, 1957, and 1987, along with laser altimetry flown in June 1996. Changes in elevation between maps were adjusted for seasonal variations in the snow cover, and to account for the ablation between the date of photography and 1 October. Topography obtained from ...
متن کاملInterannual to Decadal Variability in Climate and the Glacier Mass Balance in Washington, Western Canada, and Alaska*
The authors examine the net winter, summer, and annual mass balance of six glaciers along the northwest coast of North America, extending from Washington State to Alaska. The net winter (NWB) and net annual (NAB) mass balance anomalies for the maritime glaciers in the southern group, located in Washington and British Columbia, are shown to be positively correlated with local precipitation anoma...
متن کاملThe Mass Budget of Merging Quasars
Two spectacular results emerging from recent studies of nearby dead quasars and distant active quasars are (i) the existence of tight relations between the masses of black holes (BHs) and the properties of their host galaxies (spheroid luminosity or velocity dispersion, galaxy mass), and (ii) a consistency between the local mass density in BHs and that expected by summing up the light received ...
متن کاملThe Galactic disk mass - budget : II . Brown
In this paper, we extend the calculations conducted previously in the stellar regime (Chabrier, 2001) to determine the brown dwarf initial mass function in the Galactic disk. We perform Monte Carlo calculations taking into account the brown dwarf formation rate, spatial distribution and binary fraction. Comparison with existing surveys seems to exclude a power-law mass function as steep as the ...
