The amount of melt water from a cold based glacier, Wright Lower Glacier, Wright Valley, Antarctica
Listed in NASA Earthdata CMR
The seasonal melt regime of the Wright Lower Glacier, Wright Valley, Dry Valleys, Antarctica was investigated and monitored over three field seasons (04-05, 05-06 and 06-07).
Description
An appreciation of the amount of water coming from the glacier was measured by gauging an outlet stream during the 05-06 season. The discharge was calculated using the velocity-area method.
A Flomate 2000 was used to measure velocity at several points across the channel. These measurements were made in conjunction with water sampling.
