IceMelt3D focuses on understanding the dynamics of surface meltwater in glacial areas to enhance models predicting ice melt and runoff. The project uses the Queen Elizabeth Islands in Canada as a case study to develop a numerical model that captures the impact of melt processes on ice cap mass balance.
IceMelt3D will track the production and fate of surface meltwater in glacial bare-ice areas to improve the skill of Surface Mass Balance (SMB) models in predicting melt and runoff from these locations of major ice loss.
In these areas a porous, low-density ‘weathering crust’ (WC) often develops, which causes sub-surface melting and dramatically changes the surface albedo and hence melt rates, invoking a feedback loop.
However, SMB models lack fundamental constraints on the production and fate of…
