Exploring uncertainty in glacier mass balance modelling with Monte Carlo simulation

Exploring uncertainty in glacier mass balance modelling with Monte Carlo simulation

By means of Monte Carlo simulations we calculated uncertainty in modelled cumulative mass balance over 400 days at one particular point on the tongue of Morteratsch Glacier, Switzerland, using a glacier energy balance model of intermediate complexity. Before uncertainty assessment, the model was tun...
