Glacier mass balance: Werenskioldbreen

The monitoring of the mass balance of the Werenskioldbreen (Wedel Jarlsberg Land, Spitsbergen, Svalbard) in the years 1999-2002 and 2009-2018.

It is calculated on the base of 4 to 9 ablation stakes (depend on year).

The mass balance is determined by conducting field surveys on floating calendar dates (floating-date system).

Data have also been submitted to the World Glacier Monitoring Sevice (WGMS, https://wgms.ch )
