Climatic mass balance of the ice cap Vestfonna, Svalbard: A spatially distributed assessment using ERA-Interim and MODIS data

Möller, Marco; Finkelnburg, Roman; Braun, Matthias; Hock, Regine; Jonsell, Ulf; Pohjola, Veijo A; Scherer, Dieter; Schneider, Christoph

The ice cap Vestfonna in the northern Svalbard archipelago is one of the largest ice bodies of the European Arctic (∼2400 km2), but little is known about its mass balance. We model the climatic mass balance of the ice cap ...

Differing Climatic Mass Balance Evolution Across Svalbard Glacier Regions Over 1900–2010

Möller, Marco; Kohler, Jack

Relatively little is known about the glacier mass balance of Svalbard in the first half of the twentieth century. Here, we present the first century-long climatic mass balance time series for the Svalbard archipelago. We ...

Impact of supraglacial deposits of tephra from Grímsvötn volcano, Iceland, on glacier ablation

Möller, Marco; Möller, Rebecca; Kukla, Peter; Schneider, Christoph

Supraglacial deposits are known for their influence on glacier ablation. The magnitude of this influence depends on the thickness and the type of the deposited material. The effects of thin layers of atmospheric black ...

Late twentieth century increase in northern Spitsbergen (Svalbard) glacier-derived runoff tracked by coralline algal Ba/Ca ratios

Hetzinger, Steffen; Halfar, Jochen; Zajacz, Zoltan; Möller, Marco; Wisshak, Max

The Arctic cryosphere is changing rapidly due to global warming. Northern Svalbard is a warming hotspot with a temperature rise of ~ 6 °C over the last three decades. Concurrently, modelled data suggest a marked increase ...

Temporal constraints on future accumulation-area loss of a major Arctic ice cap due to climate change (Vestfonna, Svalbard)

Möller, Marco; Schneider, Christoph

Arctic glaciers and ice caps are major contributors to past, present and future sea-level fluctuations. Continued global warming may eventually lead to the equilibrium line altitudes of these ice masses rising above their ...

Thermal conductivity of supraglacial volcanic deposits in Iceland

Möller, Rebecca; Römer, Wolfgang; Möller, Marco; Wollenberg, Uwe; Lehmkuhl, Frank; Schneider, Christoph; Kukla, Peter

Supraglacial deposits of tephra or volcaniclastics have the potential to cause significant anomalies of glacier ablation and runoff. The intensity of these anomalies is governed by the thermal resistivity of the covering ...
