Elevation zones Hallstätter Gletscher, Dachstein, Austria, 2022/2023@en

The annual glacier mass balance of Hallstätter Gletscher in Austria is measured since 1.10.2006 with the direct glaciological method in the fixed date system (1.10. to 30. 09. of the following year). The accumulation of snow is measured by determination of the water equivalent in 6 snow pits, the ice ablation is measured with 15 stakes drilled into the ice. Results are the annual net mass balance in kg, the total accumulation and ablation, the glacier area and the portions of the area which are subject to ablation and accumulation, the elevation of the equilibrium line and the specific mass balance in kg/m² (= mm w.e.). The accumulation during the winter is determined by the 1 May. The project is funded by the Federal Government of Upper Austria. The measurements are carried out the Institute for Interdisciplinary Mountain Research of the Austrian Academy of Sciences and the company Blue Sky in Gmunden, Austria.奥地利哈尔施塔特冰川（Hallstätter Gletscher）的年度冰川物质平衡自2006年10月1日起，采用固定日期体系（每年10月1日至次年9月30日）下的直接冰川学方法开展测量。研究团队通过在6个雪坑中测定雪水当量来监测积雪积累量，借助15根植入冰体的测杆测量冰消融量。所得成果包括以千克为单位的年度净物质平衡、总积累量与总消融量、冰川面积、分别发生消融与积累的区域占比、平衡线海拔高度，以及以千克每平方米（即毫米水当量，mm w.e.）为单位的比物质平衡。冬季积雪积累量的测定于每年5月1日前完成。本项目由上奥地利州联邦政府资助，相关测量工作由奥地利科学院跨学科山地研究所与奥地利格蒙登的Blue Sky公司共同执行。
