Modelling accumulation of a high-altitude Himalayan glacier
Shrestha, Dibas
Glacier mass-balance modelling relies on parameterizations to distribute meteorological variables such as precipitation and air temperature over glacier surfaces. However, meteorological observations at the highest altitudes are sparse, particularly outside of Europe, which presents challenges for glacier modelling in high-altitude regions such as the central Himalaya. This study utilizes a dense network of weather stations in the Khumbu Valley, Nepal, to derive parameterizations for distributin
