Supraglacial debris temperature measurements from Ngozumpa Glacier, Nepal (2014–2016)

Supraglacial debris temperature measurements from a site 1.6 km from the terminus of Ngozumpa Glacier, Nepal, collected between 06 December 2014 and 03 April 2016. Debris temperatures were measured every six hours at 11 thermistors within the debris layer at depths of 0.01 m, 0.2 m, 0.4 m, 0.6 m, 0.8 m, 1.0 m, 1.2 m, 1.4 m, 1.6 m, 1.8 m and 2.0 m from the debris surface. The thickness of the debris layer at this site was 2.0 m, and the lowermost thermistor was installed at the debris-ice interface. Measurements were made using a Geoprecision thermistor array with a stated accuracy of ±0.25°C. ×
