Meltwater characteristics as indicators of the hydrology of Alpine glaciers by Collins, David Nigel

“…Close interval sampling and continuous monitoring of sediment concentration permit interpretation of the nature of ice-meltwater-sediment interactions on Alpine glacier beds. Chemical composition of meltwaters emerging from the glacier portals was monitored during several ablation seasons. …”

Hydrological processes in glacierized high-altitude basins of the western Himalayas by Jeelani, G., Shah, R., Fryar, A., Deshpande, R., Mukherjee, Abhijit, Perrin, J.

“…The economy of the region is largely dependent on the water resources delivered by snow and glacier melt. The presented study used stable isotopes of water to further understand the basin-scale hydro-meteorological, hydrological and recharge processes in three high-altitude mountainous basins of the western Himalayas. …”

Atmosphere-to-snow-to-firn transfer of NO3- on Ürümqi glacier No. 1, eastern Tien Shan, China by Zhao, Z., Li, Z., Edwards, Peter, Wang, F., Li, H., Zhu, Y.

“…In order to investigate the relationship between atmospheric nitrate and nitrate records in glacial snow and firn, nitrate was investigated in atmospheric aerosol, surface snow and the snow–firn pack on Ürümqi glacier No. 1, eastern Tien Shan, China, from September 2002 to September 2004. …”

The transport of chemical components in homogeneous snowpacks on urumqi glacier no. 1, eastern tianshan mountains, central Asia by You, X., Li, Z., Edwards, Peter, Wang, L.

“…To interpret the environmental and climatic significance of ice core records, we studied the variability of glacier snowpack chemistry by investigating homogeneous snowpacks from October 2003 to September 2006 on Urumqi Glacier No. 1 in eastern Tianshan Mountains, Central Asia. …”

Seasonal variations in the sources of natural and anthropogenic lead deposited at the East Rongbuk Glacier in the high-altitude Himalayas by Burn-Nunes, Laurie, Vallelonga, P., Lee, K., Hong, S., Burton, Graeme, Hou, S., Moy, A., Edwards, Peter, Loss, Robert, Rosman, Kevin

“…Lead (Pb) isotopic compositions and concentrations, and barium (Ba) and indium (In) concentrations have been analysed at sub-annual resolution in three sections from a < 110 m ice core dated to the 18th and 20th centuries, as well as snow pit samples dated to 2004/2005, recovered from the East Rongbuk Glacier in the high-altitude Himalayas. Ice core sections indicate that atmospheric chemistry prior to ~ 1953 was controlled by mineral dust inputs, with no discernible volcanic or anthropogenic contributions. …”
