Debris-covered glacier energy balance model for Imja–Lhotse Shar Glacier in the Everest region of Nepal
Debris thickness plays an important role in regulating ablation rates on debris-covered glaciers as well as controlling the likely size and location of supraglacial lakes. Despite its importance, lack of knowledge about debris properties and associated energy fluxes prevents the robust inclusion of...
