Bolton, L. Temperature variations of runoff from highly-glacierised alpine basins. (Dissertation). University of Salford
The temperature of meltwater emerging from the portal of an alpine glacier is usually around 1°C, irrespective of discharge, but warming with distance downstream is influenced by both flow as well as the availability of heat energy. Warmer conditions... Read More about Temperature variations of runoff from highly-glacierised alpine basins.
