Abstract
This article considers the characteristics of two systems of the supraglacial runoff of the polar glacier: a hydro-network of streams and a porous layer of melting crust. Field methods have revealed fundamental differences between these systems in the drainage area and the features of the meltwater movement and runoff regime. Calculation of the supraglacial runoff has shown its maximum level in the hydro-network during the peak of snowmelt in July, while the runoff in the melting crust becomes predominant in the second half of summer (in August).
期刊介绍:
Water Resources is a journal that publishes articles on the assessment of water resources, integrated water resource use, water quality, and environmental protection. The journal covers many areas of research, including prediction of variations in continental water resources and regime; hydrophysical, hydrodynamic, hydrochemical and hydrobiological processes, environmental aspects of water quality and protection; economic, social, and legal aspects of water-resource development; and experimental methods of studies.
