Isotopic Composition of Glacier Ice and Meltwater in the Arid Parts of the Altai Mountains (Central Asia)

Abstract: The objective of this study is to reveal the isotopic composition of ice and meltwater in glaciated regions of South-Eastern Altai. The paper depicts differences between the isotopic composition of glacier ice from several types of glaciers and from various locations. Detected differences between the isotopic composition of glacier ice in diversified parts of the study region are related to local climate patterns. Isotopic composition of meltwater and isotopic separation for glacier rivers runoff showed that i… Show more

“…Ice samples were taken from the ablation zone of the surface of the Bolshaya Taldura glacier at relatively regular intervals. This technique has been used before and has proven itself fit for determining the average isotopic composition of ice [31]. (Seasonal snow was The local meteoric water line (LMWL) was plotted from the event-based precipitation samples for each elevation separately.…”
