Thermal conductivity of firn at Lomonosovfonna, Svalbard, derived from subsurface temperature measurements

<p>Accurate description of snow and firn processes is necessary for estimating the fraction of glacier surface melt that contributes to runoff. Most processes in snow and firn are to a great extent controlled by the temperature therein and in the absence of liquid water, the temperature evolut...
