Empirical mass balance modelling of South American tropical glaciers: case study of Antisana volcano, Ecuador

Most Latin American glaciers are located in the tropical Andes. The melting processes of Glacier “15” on Antisana volcano were studied to understand the relationship between glacier retreat and natural climate variability and global climate change. Glaciers on the Antisana volcano are crucial source...
