A 30-Year Record of Surface Mass Balance (1966-95) and Motion and Surface Altitude (1975-95) at Wolverine Glacier, Alaska
Entry ID:
USGS_OFR_2004_1069
Summary
Abstract:
Scientific measurements at Wolverine Glacier, on the Kenai Peninsula in
south-central Alaska, began in April 1966. At three long-term sites in the research basin, the measurements included snow depth, snow density, heights of the glacier surface and stratigraphic summer surfaces on stakes, and identification of the surface materials. Calculations of the mass balance of the surface strata-snow, new ... ![]()
