Distributed global debris thickness estimates reveal debris significantly impacts glacier mass balance
Supraglacial debris affects glacier mass balance as a thin layer enhances surface melting,
while a thick layer reduces it. While many glaciers are debris‐covered, global glacier models …

Modelling the feedbacks between mass balance, ice flow and debris transport to predict the response to climate change of debris-covered glaciers in the Himalaya
Many Himalayan glaciers are characterised in their lower reaches by a rock debris layer.
This debris insulates the glacier surface from atmospheric warming and complicates the …

Mass-balance changes of the debris-covered glaciers in the Langtang Himal, Nepal, from 1974 to 1999
Thick debris cover on glaciers can significantly reduce ice melt. However, several studies
have suggested that debris-covered glaciers in the Himalaya might have lost mass at a rate …

Supraglacial ice cliffs can substantially increase the mass loss of debris‐covered glaciers
The thinning patterns of debris‐covered glaciers in High Mountain Asia are not well
understood. Here we calculate the effect of supraglacial ice cliffs on the mass balance of all …
