Spatiotemporal Variability in the Glacier Snowline Altitude across High Mountain Asia and Potential Driving Factors

Spatiotemporal Variability in the Glacier Snowline Altitude across High Mountain Asia and Potential Driving Factors

The glacier snowline altitude (SLA) at the end of the melt season is an indicator of the glacier equilibrium line altitude and can be used to estimate glacier mass balance and reconstruct past climate. This study analyzes the spatiotemporal variability in glacier SLA across High Mountain Asia, inclu...
