Climate and surface mass balance of Mocho Glacier, Chilean Lake District, 40°S

Climate and surface mass balance of Mocho Glacier, Chilean Lake District, 40°S

We present climate data, direct surface mass balance (SMB) observations and model results for Mocho Glacier in the Chilean Lake District. Mean annual temperature on a nunatak of Mocho Glacier at an elevation of ~2000 m was +2.6°C in 2006–15 and mean annual precipitation in Puerto Fuy (13 km from the...
