Spatial distribution of snow cover and temperature in the upper layer of a polythermal glacier

The thermal regime of the upper layers of any glacier largely determines the thermal structure of its entire thickness. Its formation is influenced by both, external and internal factors and the most important one among them is the snow cover. Playing the role of a heat insulator in winter and preve...
