1. [Article] Climatology of Katabatic Winds in the McMurdo Dry Valleys, Southern Victoria Land, Antarctica
Katabatic winds dramatically affect the climate of the McMurdo dry valleys, Antarctica. Winter wind events can increase local air temperatures by 30°C. The frequency of katabatic winds largely controls ...Citation -
Climate observations from the McMurdo dry valleys, East Antarctica are presented from a network of seven valley floor automatic meteorological stations during the period 1986 to 2000. Mean annual temperatures ...

4. [Article] Variability in Winter Mass Balance of Northern Hemisphere Glaciers and Relations with Atmospheric Circulation
An analysis of variability in the winter mass balance (WMB) of 22 glaciers in the Northern Hemisphere indicates two primary modes of variability that explain 46% of the variability among all glaciers. ...Citation -
We developed a simulation model for terrestrial sites including sensible heat exchange between the atmosphere and ground surface, inter- and intra-layer heat conduction by rock and soil, and shortwave ...
Citation -
Cryoconite holes in the McMurdo Dry Valleys are ice-lidded, thus isolating the pools of water from the atmosphere and from potential surface melt. Hourly measurements of ice and water temperature and water ...

7. [Article] Hydrologic Response to Extreme Warm and Cold Summers in the McMurdo Dry Valleys, East Antarctica
The meteorological characteristics and hydrological response of an extreme warm, and cold summer in the McMurdo Dry Valleys are compared. The driver behind the warmer summer conditions was the occurrence ...Citation
