Greenland Snow Temperatures

My graduate degree research was focused on glacial hydrology, which is basically trying to figure out how water moves above, below, and through glaciers and ice sheets. Water is important because it affects things like sliding, melting, sub-glacial erosion, and geochemistry. My research utilized temperature measurements from snow on the Greenland ice sheet, and I was lucky enough to travel to SW Greenland in the summer of 2010.

I wrote this a few years ago on another blog, but I think it is still relevant so I am re-posting it here. The code is still available on Github.

I worked for several years at USU on the iUTAH project. While there I managed a network of water monitoring stations along the Logan river, and one component of my job involved measuring stream flow. We wanted to know how much water was flowing past each station in order to answer basic questions like “how much water is lost or gained downstream?”
