Investigating Controls on the Formation and Distribution of Wintertime Storage of Water in Supraglacial Lakes

Supraglacial lakes over the Greenland Ice Sheet can demonstrate multi-model drainage states. Lakes can demonstrate incomplete drainage, where residual melt can become buried under ice and snow and survive throughout the winter. We evaluate atmospheric factors that influence the propensity for the fo...
