Seasonal surface melt onset and firn freeze-up across the central Wrangell and St. Elias Mountains

Abstract. High-elevation alpine firn is increasingly influenced by surface melt and meltwater retention, yet the spatial extent and timing of these processes remain poorly quantified. Here we present spatially distributed estimates of seasonal surface melt onset and firn freeze-u...

Seasonal to decadal evolution of firn properties and impacts on hydrology of the Juneau Icefield

Alpine glaciers of Alaska are significant contributors to global sea-level rise. Most Alaskan glaciers lose mass through surface melt due to increasing atmospheric temperatures. Surface melt may be retained or run off in the snow and firn, potentially altering regional glacial hy...
