text: We present new results from the widest narrow-band survey search for Lyα emitters
at z = 5.7, just after reionization. We survey a total of 7 deg2 spread over the
COSMOS, UDS and SA22 fields. We find over 11 000 line emitters, out of which 514
are robust Lyα candidates at z = 5.7 within a volume of 6.3 × 106 Mpc3. Our Lyα
emitters span a wide range in Lyα luminosities, from faint to bright (LLyα ∼ 1042.5–44
erg s−1) and rest-frame equivalent widths (EW0 ∼ 25–1000 Å) in a single, homogeneous
data set. By combining all our fields, we find that the faint end slope of the
z = 5.7 Lyα luminosity function is very steep, with α=−2.3+0.4−0.3. We also present
an updated z = 6.6 Lyα luminosity function, based on comparable volumes and obtained
with the same methods, which we directly compare with that at z = 5.7. We find
a significant decline of the number density of faint Lyα emitters from z = 5.7
to 6.6 (by 0.5 ± 0.1 dex), but no evolution at the bright end/no evolution in
L*. Faint Lyα emitters at z = 6.6 show much more extended haloes than those at
z = 5.7, suggesting that neutral Hydrogen plays an important role, increasing
the scattering and leading to observations missing faint Lyα emission within the
epoch of reionization. Altogether, our results suggest that we are observing patchy
reionization which happens first around the brightest Lyα emitters, allowing the
number densities of those sources to remain unaffected by the increase of neutral
Hydrogen fraction from z ∼ 5 to 7.

text: We investigate correlations between different physical properties of star-forming
galaxies in the ‘Evolution and Assembly of GaLaxies and their Environments’ (EAGLE)
cosmological hydrodynamical simulation suite over the redshift range 0 ≤ z ≤ 4.5.
A principal component analysis reveals that neutral gas fraction (fgas,neutral),
stellar mass (Mstellar) and star formation rate (SFR) account for most of the
variance seen in the population, with galaxies tracing a two-dimensional, nearly
flat, surface in the three-dimensional space of fgas, neutral–Mstellar–SFR with
little scatter. The location of this plane varies little with redshift, whereas
galaxies themselves move along the plane as their fgas, neutral and SFR drop with
redshift. The positions of galaxies along the plane are highly correlated with
gas metallicity. The metallicity can therefore be robustly predicted from fgas,
neutral, or from the Mstellar and SFR. We argue that the appearance of this ‘Fundamental
Plane of star formation’ is a consequence of self-regulation, with the plane's
curvature set by the dependence of the SFR on gas density and metallicity. We
analyse a large compilation of observations spanning the redshift range 0 ≲ z
≲ 3, and find that such a plane is also present in the data. The properties of
the observed Fundamental Plane of star formation are in good agreement with EAGLE's
predictions.

text: We use new near-infrared spectroscopic observations to investigate the nature
and evolution of the most luminous Hα emitters at z ∼ 0.8–2.23, which evolve strongly
in number density over this period, and compare them to more typical Hα emitters.
We study 59 luminous Hα emitters with LHα > L∗Hα, roughly equally split per redshift
slice at z ∼ 0.8, 1.47 and 2.23 from the HiZELS and CF-HiZELS surveys. We find
that, overall, 30 ± 8 per cent are active galactic nuclei [AGNs; 80 ± 30 per cent
of these AGNs are broad-line AGNs, BL-AGNs], and we find little to no evolution
in the AGN fraction with redshift, within the errors. However, the AGN fraction
increases strongly with Hα luminosity and correlates best with LHα/L∗Hα(z). While
LHα ≤ L∗Hα(z) Hα emitters are largely dominated by star-forming galaxies (>80
per cent), the most luminous Hα emitters (LHα>10L∗Hα(z)) at any cosmic time
are essentially all BL-AGN. Using our AGN-decontaminated sample of luminous star-forming
galaxies, and integrating down to a fixed Hα luminosity, we find a factor of ∼1300
evolution in the star formation rate density from z = 0 to 2.23. This is much
stronger than the evolution from typical Hα star-forming galaxies and in line
with the evolution seen for constant luminosity cuts used to select ‘ultraluminous’
infrared galaxies and/or sub-millimetre galaxies. By taking into account the evolution
in the typical Hα luminosity, we show that the most strongly star-forming Hα-selected
galaxies at any epoch (LHα>L∗Hα(z)) contribute the same fractional amount of
≈15 per cent to the total star formation rate density, at least up to z = 2.23.

text: We present the first results from our CAlibrating LYMan α with Hα (CALYMHA)
pilot survey at the Isaac Newton Telescope. We measure Lyα emission for 488 Hα
selected galaxies at z = 2.23 from High-z Emission Line Survey in the COSMOS and
UDS fields with a specially designed narrow-band filter (λc = 3918 Å, Δλ = 52
Å). We find 17 dual Hα-Lyα emitters [fLyα > 5 × 10−17 erg s−1 cm−2, of which five
are X-ray active galactic nuclei (AGN)]. For star-forming galaxies, we find a
range of Lyα escape fractions (fesc, measured with 3 arcsec apertures) from 2
to 30 per cent. These galaxies have masses from 3 × 108 M⊙ to 1011 M⊙ and dust
attenuations E(B − V) = 0–0.5. Using stacking, we measure a median escape fraction
of 1.6 ± 0.5 per cent (4.0 ± 1.0 per cent without correcting Hα for dust), but
show that this depends on galaxy properties. The stacked fesc tends to decrease
with increasing star formation rate and dust attenuation. However, at the highest
masses and dust attenuations, we detect individual galaxies with fesc much higher
than the typical values from stacking, indicating significant scatter in the values
of fesc. Relations between fesc and UV slope are bimodal, with high fesc for either
the bluest or reddest galaxies. We speculate that this bimodality and large scatter
in the values of fesc is due to additional physical mechanisms such as outflows
facilitating fesc for dusty/massive systems. Lyα is significantly more extended
than Hα and the UV. fesc continues to increase up to at least 20 kpc (3σ, 40 kpc
[2σ]) for typical star-forming galaxies and thus the aperture is the most important
predictor of fesc.

areas, as those have been crucial for the results presented in this paper. The sample
of HAEs is publicly available from Sobral et al. (2013).\r\nWe have benefited greatly
from the publically available programming language PYTHON, including the NUMPY,
MATPLOTLIB, PYFITS, SCIPY (Jones et al. 2001; Hunter 2007; Van Der Walt, Colbert
& Varoquaux 2011) and ASTROPY (Astropy Collaboration et al. 2013) packages, the
imaging tools SEXTRACTOR, SWARP and SCAMP (Bertin & Arnouts 1996; Bertin 2006, 2010)
and the TOPCAT analysis program (Taylor 2005)."

text: HR 8799 is a star accompanied by four massive planets on wide orbits. The
observed planetary configuration has been shown to be unstable on a timescale
much shorter than the estimated age of the system (~30 Myr) unless the planets
are locked into mean motion resonances. This condition is characterised by small-amplitude
libration of one or more resonant angles that stabilise the system by preventing
close encounters. We simulate planetary systems similar to the HR 8799 planetary
system, exploring the parameter space in separation between the orbits, planetary
masses and distance from the Sun to the star. We find systems that look like HR
8799 and remain stable for longer than the estimated age of HR 8799. None of our
systems are forced into resonances. We find, with nominal masses (Mb = 5 MJup
and Mc,d,e = 7 MJup) and in a narrow range of orbit separations, that 5 of 100
systems match the observations and lifetime. Considering a broad range of orbit
separations, we find 12 of 900 similar systems. The systems survive significantly
longer because of their slightly increased initial orbit separations compared
to assuming circular orbits from the observed positions. A small increase in separation
leads to a significant increase in survival time. The low eccentricity the orbits
develop from gravitational interaction is enough for the planets to match the
observations. With lower masses, but still comfortably within the estimated planet
mass uncertainty, we find 18 of 100 matching and long-lived systems in a narrow
orbital separation range. In the broad separation range, we find 82 of 900 matching
systems. Our results imply that the planets in the HR 8799 system do not have
to be in strong mean motion resonances. We also investigate the future of wide-orbit
planetary systems using our HR 8799 analogues. We find that 80% of the systems
have two planets left after strong planet-planet scattering and these are on eccentric
orbits with semi-major axes of a1 ~ 10 AU and a2 ~ 30−1000 AU. We speculate that
other wide-orbit planetary systems, such as AB Pic and HD 106906, are the remnants
of HR 8799 analogues that underwent close encounters and dynamical instability.

text: 'Faint Lyα emitters become increasingly rarer toward the reionization epoch
(z ∼ 6–7). However, observations from a very large (∼5 deg2) Lyα narrow-band survey
at z = 6.6 show that this is not the case for the most luminous emitters, capable
of ionizing their own local bubbles. Here we present follow-up observations of
the two most luminous Lyα candidates in the COSMOS field: “MASOSA” and “CR7.”
We used X-SHOOTER, SINFONI, and FORS2 on the Very Large Telescope, and DEIMOS
on Keck, to confirm both candidates beyond any doubt. We find redshifts of z =
6.541 and z = 6.604 for “MASOSA” and “CR7,” respectively. MASOSA has a strong
detection in Lyα with a line width of 386 ± 30 km s−1 (FWHM) and with very high
EW0 (>200 Å), but undetected in the continuum, implying very low stellar mass
and a likely young, metal-poor stellar population. “CR7,” with an observed Lyα
luminosity of 1043.92±0.05 erg s−1 is the most luminous Lyα emitter ever found
at z > 6 and is spatially extended (∼16 kpc). “CR7” reveals a narrow Lyα line
with 266 ± 15 km s−1 FWHM, being detected in the near-infrared (NIR) (rest-frame
UV; β = −2.3 ± 0.1) and in IRAC/Spitzer. We detect a narrow He II 1640 Å emission
line (6σ, FWHM = 130 ± 30 km s−1 ) in CR7 which can explain the clear excess seen
in the J-band photometry (EW0 ∼ 80 Å). We find no other emission lines from the
UV to the NIR in our X-SHOOTER spectra (He II/O III] 1663 Å > 3 and He II/C III]
1908 Å > 2.5). We conclude that CR7 is best explained by a combination of a PopIII-like
population, which dominates the rest-frame UV and the nebular emission, and a
more normal stellar population, which presumably dominates the mass. Hubble Space
Telescope/WFC3 observations show that the light is indeed spatially separated
between a very blue component, coincident with Lyα and He II emission, and two
red components (∼5 kpc away), which dominate the mass. Our findings are consistent
with theoretical predictions of a PopIII wave, with PopIII star formation migrating
away from the original sites of star formation.'

text: CR7 is the brightest z = 6.6 Ly α emitter (LAE) known to date, and spectroscopic
follow-up by Sobral et al. suggests that CR7 might host Population (Pop) III stars.
We examine this interpretation using cosmological hydrodynamical simulations.
Several simulated galaxies show the same ‘Pop III wave’ pattern observed in CR7.
However, to reproduce the extreme CR7 Ly α/He II1640 line luminosities (Lα/HeII)
a top-heavy initial mass function and a massive ( ≳ 107 M⊙) Pop III burst with
age ≲ 2 Myr are required. Assuming that the observed properties of Ly α and He II
emission are typical for Pop III, we predict that in the COSMOS/UDS/SA22 fields,
14 out of the 30 LAEs at z = 6.6 with Lα > 1043.3 erg s−1 should also host Pop
III stars producing an observable LHeII≳1042.7ergs−1. As an alternate explanation,
we explore the possibility that CR7 is instead powered by accretion on to a direct
collapse black hole. Our model predicts Lα, LHeII, and X-ray luminosities that
are in agreement with the observations. In any case, the observed properties of
CR7 indicate that this galaxy is most likely powered by sources formed from pristine
gas. We propose that further X-ray observations can distinguish between the two
above scenarios.

text: 'We present results from the largest contiguous narrow-band survey in the
near-infrared. We have used the wide-field infrared camera/Canada–France–Hawaii
Telescope and the lowOH2 filter (1.187 ± 0.005 μm) to survey ≈10 deg2 of contiguous
extragalactic sky in the SA22 field. A total of ∼6000 candidate emission-line
galaxies are found. We use deep ugrizJK data to obtain robust photometric redshifts.
We combine our data with the High-redshift(Z) Emission Line Survey (HiZELS), explore
spectroscopic surveys (VVDS, VIPERS) and obtain our own spectroscopic follow-up
with KMOS, FMOS and MOSFIRE to derive large samples of high-redshift emission-line
selected galaxies: 3471 Hα emitters at z = 0.8, 1343 [O III] + Hβ emitters at
z = 1.4 and 572 [O II] emitters at z = 2.2. We probe comoving volumes of >106
Mpc3 and find significant overdensities, including an 8.5σ (spectroscopically
confirmed) overdensity of Hα emitters at z = 0.81. We derive Hα, [O III] + Hβ
and [O II] luminosity functions at z = 0.8, 1.4, 2.2, respectively, and present
implications for future surveys such as Euclid. Our uniquely large volumes/areas
allow us to subdivide the samples in thousands of randomized combinations of areas
and provide a robust empirical measurement of sample/cosmic variance. We show
that surveys for star-forming/emission-line galaxies at a depth similar to ours
can only overcome cosmic-variance (errors <10 per cent) if they are based on volumes
>5 × 105 Mpc3; errors on L* and ϕ* due to sample (cosmic) variance on surveys
probing ∼104 and ∼105 Mpc3 are typically very high: ∼300 and ∼40–60 per cent,
respectively.'

text: Using wide-field narrow-band surveys, we provide a new measurement of the
z = 6.6 Lymanα emitter (LAE) luminosity function (LF), which constraints the bright
end for the first time. We use a combination of archival narrow-band NB921 data
in UDS and new NB921 measurements in SA22 and COSMOS/UltraVISTA, all observed
with the Subaru telescope, with a total area of ∼5 deg2. We exclude lower redshift
interlopers by using broad-band optical and near-infrared photometry and also
exclude three supernovae with data split over multiple epochs. Combining the UDS
and COSMOS samples, we find no evolution of the bright end of the Lyα LF between
z = 5.7 and 6.6, which is supported by spectroscopic follow-up, and conclude that
sources with Himiko-like luminosity are not as rare as previously thought, with
number densities of ∼1.5 × 10−5 Mpc−3. Combined with our wide-field SA22 measurements,
our results indicate a non-Schechter-like bright end of the LF at z = 6.6 and
a different evolution of observed faint and bright LAEs, overcoming cosmic variance.
This differential evolution is also seen in the spectroscopic follow-up of UV-selected
galaxies and is now also confirmed for LAEs, and we argue that it may be an effect
of reionization. Using a toy model, we show that such differential evolution of
the LF is expected, since brighter sources are able to ionize their surroundings
earlier, such that Lyα photons are able to escape. Our targets are excellent candidates
for detailed follow-up studies and provide the possibility to give a unique view
on the earliest stages in the formation of galaxies and reionization process.

text: Air temperature is one of the most relevant input variables for snow and ice
melt calculations. However, local meteorological conditions, complex topography,
and logistical concerns in glacierized regions make the measuring and modeling
of air temperature a difficult task. In this study, we investigate the spatial
distribution of 2 m air temperature over mountain glaciers and propose a modification
to an existing model to improve its representation. Spatially distributed meteorological
data from Haut Glacier d'Arolla (Switzerland), Place (Canada), and Juncal Norte
(Chile) Glaciers are used to examine approximate flow line temperatures during
their respective ablation seasons. During warm conditions (off-glacier temperatures
well above 0°C), observed air temperatures in the upper reaches of Place Glacier
and Haut Glacier d'Arolla decrease down glacier along the approximate flow line.
At Juncal Norte and Haut Glacier d'Arolla, an increase in air temperature is observed
over the glacier tongue. While the temperature behavior over the upper part can
be explained by the cooling effect of the glacier surface, the temperature increase
over the glacier tongue may be caused by several processes induced by the surrounding
warm atmosphere. In order to capture the latter effect, we add an additional term
to the Greuell and Böhm (GB) thermodynamic glacier wind model. For high off-glacier
temperatures, the modified GB model reduces root-mean-square error up to 32% and
provides a new approach for distributing air temperature over mountain glaciers
as a function of off-glacier temperatures and approximate glacier flow lines.

text: We have observed a sample of typical z ∼ 1 star-forming galaxies, selected
from the HiZELS survey, with the new K-band Multi-Object Spectrograph (KMOS) near-infrared,
multi-integral field unit instrument on the Very Large Telescope (VLT), in order
to obtain their dynamics and metallicity gradients. The majority of our galaxies
have a metallicity gradient consistent with being flat or negative (i.e. higher
metallicity cores than outskirts). Intriguingly, we find a trend between metallicity
gradient and specific star formation rate (sSFR), such that galaxies with a high
sSFR tend to have relatively metal poor centres, a result which is strengthened
when combined with data sets from the literature. This result appears to explain
the discrepancies reported between different high-redshift studies and varying
claims for evolution. From a galaxy evolution perspective, the trend we see would
mean that a galaxy's sSFR is governed by the amount of metal-poor gas that can
be funnelled into its core, triggered either by merging or through efficient accretion.
In fact, merging may play a significant role as it is the starburst galaxies at
all epochs, which have the more positive metallicity gradients. Our results may
help to explain the origin of the fundamental metallicity relation, in which galaxies
at a fixed mass are observed to have lower metallicities at higher star formation
rates, especially if the metallicity is measured in an aperture encompassing only
the central regions of the galaxy. Finally, we note that this study demonstrates
the power of KMOS as an efficient instrument for large-scale resolved galaxy surveys.

text: 'Candidate galaxies at redshifts of z ∼ 10 are now being found in extremely
deep surveys, probing very small areas. As a consequence, candidates are very
faint, making spectroscopic confirmation practically impossible. In order to overcome
such limitations, we have undertaken the CF-HiZELS survey, which is a large-area,
medium-depth near-infrared narrow-band survey targeted at z = 8.8 Lyman α (Lyα)
emitters (LAEs) and covering 10 deg2 in part of the SSA22 field with the Canada–France–Hawaii
Telescope (CFHT). We surveyed a comoving volume of 4.7 × 106 Mpc3 to a Lyα luminosity
limit of 6.3 × 1043舁erg舁s−1. We look for Lyα candidates by applying the following
criteria: (i) clear emission-line source, (ii) no optical detections (ugriz from
CFHTLS), (iii) no visible detection in the optical stack (ugriz > 27), (iv) visually
checked reliable NBJ and J detections and (v) J − K ≤ 0. We compute photometric
redshifts and remove a significant amount of dusty lower redshift line-emitters
at z ∼ 1.4 or 2.2. A total of 13 Lyα candidates were found, of which two are marked
as strong candidates, but the majority have very weak constraints on their spectral
energy distributions. Using follow-up observations with SINFONI/VLT, we are able
to exclude the most robust candidates as LAEs. We put a strong constraint on the
Lyα luminosity function at z ∼ 9 and make realistic predictions for ongoing and
future surveys. Our results show that surveys for the highest redshift LAEs are
susceptible of multiple contaminations and that spectroscopic follow-up is absolutely
necessary.'

text: We present the spatially resolved Hα dynamics of 16 star-forming galaxies
at z ∼ 0.81 using the new KMOS multi-object integral field spectrograph on the
ESO Very Large Telescope. These galaxies, selected using 1.18 μm narrowband imaging
from the 10 deg2 CFHT-HiZELS survey of the SA 22 hr field, are found in a ∼4 Mpc
overdensity of Hα emitters and likely reside in a group/intermediate environment,
but not a cluster. We confirm and identify a rich group of star-forming galaxies
at z = 0.813 ± 0.003, with 13 galaxies within 1000 km s−1 of each other, and seven
within a diameter of 3 Mpc. All of our galaxies are “typical” star-forming galaxies
at their redshift, 0.8 ± 0.4 SFR$^*_{z = 0.8}$, spanning a range of specific star
formation rates (sSFRs) of 0.2–1.1 Gyr−1 and have a median metallicity very close
to solar of 12 + log(O/H) = 8.62 ± 0.06. We measure the spatially resolved Hα
dynamics of the galaxies in our sample and show that 13 out of 16 galaxies can
be described by rotating disks and use the data to derive inclination corrected
rotation speeds of 50–275 km s−1. The fraction of disks within our sample is 75%
± 8%, consistent with previous results based on Hubble Space Telescope morphologies
of Hα-selected galaxies at z ∼ 1 and confirming that disks dominate the SFR density
at z ∼ 1. Our Hα galaxies are well fitted by the z ∼ 1–2 Tully–Fisher (TF) relation,
confirming the evolution seen in the zero point. Apart from having, on average,
higher stellar masses and lower sSFRs, our group galaxies at z = 0.81 present
the same mass–metallicity and TF relation as z ∼ 1 field galaxies and are all
disk galaxies.

text: Parameterizations of incoming longwave radiation are increasingly receiving
attention for both low and high elevation glacierized sites. In this paper, we
test 13 clear-sky parameterizations combined with seven cloud corrections for
all-sky atmospheric emissivity at one location on Haut Glacier d'Arolla. We also
analyze the four seasons separately and conduct a cross-validation to test the
parameters’ robustness. The best parameterization is the one by Dilley and O'Brien,
B for clear-sky conditions combined with Unsworth and Monteith cloud correction.
This model is also the most robust when tested in cross-validation. When validated
at different sites in the southern Alps of Switzerland and north-western Italian
Alps, all parameterizations show a substantial decrease in performance, except
for one site, thus suggesting that it is important to recalibrate parameterizations
of incoming longwave radiation for different locations. We argue that this is
due to differences in the structure of the atmosphere at the sites. We also quantify
the effect that the incoming longwave radiation parameterizations have on energy-balance
melt modeling, and show that recalibration of model parameters is needed. Using
parameters from other sites leads to a significant underestimation of melt and
to an error that is larger than that associated with using different parameterizations.
Once recalibrated, however, the parameters of most models seem to be stable over
seasons and years at the location on Haut Glacier d'Arolla.

text: Distributed glacier melt models generally assume that the glacier surface
consists of bare exposed ice and snow. In reality, many glaciers are wholly or
partially covered in layers of debris that tend to suppress ablation rates. In
this paper, an existing physically based point model for the ablation of debris-covered
ice is incorporated in a distributed melt model and applied to Haut Glacier d'Arolla,
Switzerland, which has three large patches of debris cover on its surface. The
model is based on a 10 m resolution digital elevation model (DEM) of the area;
each glacier pixel in the DEM is defined as either bare or debris-covered ice,
and may be covered in snow that must be melted off before ice ablation is assumed
to occur. Each debris-covered pixel is assigned a debris thickness value using
probability distributions based on over 1000 manual thickness measurements. Locally
observed meteorological data are used to run energy balance calculations in every
pixel, using an approach suitable for snow, bare ice or debris-covered ice as
appropriate. The use of the debris model significantly reduces the total ablation
in the debris-covered areas, however the precise reduction is sensitive to the
temperature extrapolation used in the model distribution because air near the
debris surface tends to be slightly warmer than over bare ice. Overall results
suggest that the debris patches, which cover 10% of the glacierized area, reduce
total runoff from the glacierized part of the basin by up to 7%.

text: Temperature data from three Automatic Weather Stations and twelve Temperature
Loggers are used to investigate the spatiotemporal variability of temperature
over a glacier, its main atmospheric controls, the suitability of extrapolation
techniques and their effect on melt modeling. We use data collected on Juncal
Norte Glacier, central Chile, during one ablation season. We examine temporal
and spatial variability in lapse rates (LRs), together with alternative statistical
interpolation methods. The main control over the glacier thermal regime is the
development of a katabatic boundary layer (KBL). Katabatic wind occurs at night
and in the morning and is eroded in the afternoon. LRs reveal strong diurnal variability,
with steeper LRs during the day when the katabatic wind weakens and shallower
LRs during the night and morning. We suggest that temporally variable LRs should
be used to account for the observed change. They tend to be steeper than equivalent
constant LRs, and therefore result in a reduction in simulated melt compared to
use of constant LRs when extrapolating from lower to higher elevations. In addition
to the temporal variability, the temperature-elevation relationship varies also
in space. Differences are evident between local LRs and including such variability
in melt modeling affects melt simulations. Extrapolation methods based on the
spatial variability of the observations after removal of the elevation trend,
such as Inverse Distance Weighting or Kriging, do not seem necessary for simulations
of gridded temperature data over a glacier.

text: '[1] During the ablation period 2001 a glaciometeorological experiment was
carried out on Haut Glacier d''Arolla, Switzerland. Five meteorological stations
were installed on the glacier, and one permanent automatic weather station in
the glacier foreland. The altitudes of the stations ranged between 2500 and 3000
m a.s.l., and they were in operation from end of May to beginning of September
2001. The spatial arrangement of the stations and temporal duration of the measurements
generated a unique data set enabling the analysis of the spatial and temporal
variability of the meteorological variables across an alpine glacier. All measurements
were taken at a nominal height of 2 m, and hourly averages were derived for the
analysis. The wind regime was dominated by the glacier wind (mean value 2.8 m
s−1) but due to erosion by the synoptic gradient wind, occasionally the wind would
blow up the valley. A slight decrease in mean 2 m air temperatures with altitude
was found, however the 2 m air temperature gradient varied greatly and frequently
changed its sign. Mean relative humidity was 71% and exhibited limited spatial
variation. Mean incoming shortwave radiation and albedo both generally increased
with elevation. The different components of shortwave radiation are quantified
with a parameterization scheme. Resulting spatial variations are mainly due to
horizon obstruction and reflections from surrounding slopes, i.e., topography.
The effect of clouds accounts for a loss of 30% of the extraterrestrial flux.
Albedos derived from a Landsat TM image of 30 July show remarkably constant values,
in the range 0.49 to 0.50, across snow covered parts of the glacier, while albedo
is highly spatially variable below the zone of continuous snow cover. These results
are verified with ground measurements and compared with parameterized albedo.
Mean longwave radiative fluxes decreased with elevation due to lower air temperatures
and the effect of upper hemisphere slopes. It is shown through parameterization
that this effect would even be more pronounced without the effect of clouds. Results
are discussed with respect to a similar study which has been carried out on Pasterze
Glacier (Austria). The presented algorithms for interpolating, parameterizing
and simulating variables and parameters in alpine regions are integrated in the
software package AMUNDSEN which is freely available to be adapted and further
developed by the community.'
