Use of ablation-season albedo as an indicator of annual mass balance of four glaciers in the Tien Shan

Glacier mass balance and its sensitivity to climate change depend to a large degree on the albedo and albedo feedback. Although recent increasing studies reconstruct the annual surface mass balance (SMB) based on the relationships between satellite-derived minimum albedo and annual glaciological mas...
