Description

Firn temperature profiles from the accumulation zone of the Greenland ice sheet are used to estimate thermal conductivities and melt water refreezing quantities. Firn thermal conductivity values are calculated from temperature profiles using a new optimization method. The results indicate that polar snowpack thermal conductivities may be significantly higher as a function of density than previously published empirical regressions would suggest. The quantity of melt water refreezing at each site is determined using temperature profiles and a heat conduction model. The heat conduction model is used to partition the seasonal heating of firn into heat conducted from the surface and heat released during refreezing. The heat from refreezing is then converted to a quantity of water using the latent heat of fusion. The refreezing values can be used to verify previously published refreezing estimates, thereby helping reduce uncertainty in Greenland surface mass balance calculations.
