The elastic response of solid earth to glacier and ice sheet melting, the most important consequences climate change, is a contemporaneous uplift. Here, we use interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) measurements detect crustal deformation mass loss near Helheim glacier, one largest glaciers in southeastern Greenland. InSAR time series Sentinel-1 data between April 2016 July 2020 sugge...

The harbor resonance triggered by double solitary waves (DSWs) with different wave parameters (including various heights and relative separation distances) is simulated based on the fully nonlinear Boussinesq model, FUNWAVE-TVD. A long narrow topographies adopted. In current study, effects of incident height, distance bottom profile hydrodynamic characteristics related to transient oscillations...

Topography complicates the modeling and retrieval of land surface albedo due to shadow effects and the redistribution of incident radiation. Neglecting topographic effects may lead to a significant bias when estimating land surface albedo over a single slope. However, for rugged terrain, a comprehensive and systematic investigation of topographic effects on land surface albedo is currently ongo...

Wall-jet flow is an important flow field in hydraulic engineering, and its applications include flow from the bottom outlet of dams and sluice gates. In this paper, the plane turbulent wall jet in shallow tailwater is simulated by solving the Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes equations using the standard  turbulence closure model. This study aims to explore the ability of a time splitting method ...

The Ice, Cloud and land Elevation Satellite (ICESat) in its 8 day repeat orbit mode provided data not only on the along-track surface slope, but also on the cross-track surface slope from adjacent repeat ground tracks. During the first 36 days of operation, four to five such repeat orbits occurred within 1 km in the cross-track direction. This provided an opportunity to use ICESat data to measu...

[1] Glaciological processes are modeled to investigate precipitation patterns and the resulting mass flux of snow and ice across Himalayan topography. Our model tracks the accumulation and ablation of snow and ice and the transport of snow and ice across the topography by glacier motion. We investigate high elevation precipitation on the Annapurna Massif by comparing the existing ice cover with...
