Surface-atmosphere decoupling limits accumulation at Summit, Greenland
Despite rapid melting in the coastal regions of the Greenland Ice Sheet, a significant area (~40%) of the ice sheet rarely experiences surface melting. In these regions, the controls on annual accumulation are poorly constrained owing to surface conditions (for example, surface clouds, blowing snow, and surface inversions), which render moisture flux estimates from myriad approaches (that is, e...
متن کاملTrend Surface Analysis-a Review
Earth scientists have always been interested in the description and analysis of surfaces, particularly those which serve to describe mapped data. The methods used in this context fall into two categories, written descriptions (using terms such as dip, strike, plunge, isoclinal folding, attitude of axial plane, iaiiation etc.1 and mathematical approximations. To overcome the inadequacies of verb...
متن کاملLab 9 - Spatial analysis: Trend surface analysis and PCNM
Spatial structure in ecological communities is increasingly recognized as being important for the understanding of the processes driving communities. In ecological communities, spatial patterns are either driven by environmental factors or biotic processes. Thus to adequately understand ecological communities it is important to identify the spatial structures and then relate these patterns to u...
متن کاملMultiyear accumulation and temperature history near the North Greenland Ice Core Project site, north central Greenland
This paper presents a comparison of two independent methods of estimating subseasonal accumulation across the interior of Greenland. These methods, highresolution snow pit studies and atmospheric modeling, have differing spatial and temporal resolution, but both can estimate net accumulation for subseasonal and shorter periods. The snow pit approach is based on a documented relationship between...
