Surface-layer turbulence, energy balance and links to atmospheric circulations over a mountain glacier in the French Alps
Over Saint-Sorlin Glacier in the French Alps (45° N, 6.1° E; ∼ 3 km<sup>2</sup>) in summer, we study the atmospheric surface-layer dynamics, turbulent fluxes, their uncertainties and their impact on surface energy balance (SEB) melt estimates. Results are classified with regard to large-...
