Shaw, Thomas E.; Brock, Ben W.; Ayala, Alvaro; Rutter, Nick; Pellicciotti, Francesca (Cambridge University Press, 2017)The spatio-temporal distribution of air temperature over mountain glaciers can demonstrate complex patterns, yet it is often represented simplistically using linear vertical temperature gradients (VTGs) extrapolated from ...

Fugazza, Davide; Shaw, Thomas E.; Mashtayeva, Shamshagul; Brock, Benjamin (Wiley, 2020)The Irtysh River is the main water resource of Eastern Kazakhstan and its upper basin is severely affected by spring floods each year, primarily as a result of snowmelt. Knowledge of the large-scale processes that influence ...

Burger, Flavia; Ayala, Alvaro; Farias, David; Shaw, Thomas E.; MacDonell, Shelley; Brock, Ben; McPhee, James; Pellicciotti, Francesca (John Wiley and Sons Ltd, 2019)© 2018 The Authors. Hydrological Processes published by John Wiley & Sons Ltd. We present a field-data rich modelling analysis to reconstruct the climatic forcing, glacier response, and runoff generation from a high-elevation ...

Shaw, Thomas E.; Deschamps Berger, César; Gascoin, Simón; McPhee, James (Frontiers Media, 2020)Quantifying the high elevation winter snowpack in mountain environments is crucial for lowland water supply, though it is notoriously difficult to accurately estimate due to a lack of observations and/or uncertainty in the ...

Shaw, Thomas E.; Gascoin, Simon; Mendoza Zúñiga, Pablo; Pellicciotti, Francesca; McPhee Torres, James (Wiley, 2020)Obtaining detailed information about high mountain snowpacks is often limited by insufficient ground-based observations and uncertainty in the (re)distribution of solid precipitation. We utilize high-resolution optical ...

Spatial Distribution and Scaling Properties of Lidar‐Derived Snow Depth in the Extratropical Andes Mendoza Zúñiga, Pablo; Shaw, Thomas E.; McPhee, James; Musselman, Keith N.; Revuelto, Jesús; MacDonell, Shelley (American Geophysical Union, 2020)We characterize elevational gradients, probability distributions, and scaling patterns of lidar-derived snow depth at the hillslope scale along the extratropical Andes. Specifically, we analyze snow depth maps acquired ...

Shaw, Thomas E.; Caro, Alexis; Mendoza Zúñiga, Pablo Andrés; Silva Ayala, Álvaro Felipe; Pellicciotti, Francesca; Gascoin, Simon; McPhee, James (American Geophysical Union, 2020)Information about end-of-winter spatial distribution of snow depth is important for seasonal forecasts of spring/summer streamflow in high-mountain regions. Nevertheless, such information typically relies upon extrapolation ...
