dc.description.abstract | This thesis represents an attempt to analyse some of the causes and effects of climate/glacier interaction on the Whakapapanui Glacier. Climate/glacier studies encompass a wide range of relationships all of which are interrelated. Meier has developed a system which expresses the manner in which the various aspects of this interrelationship are linked. The writer was concerned principally with the first three stages of this system, those which dealt with "the size to which a glacier grows, its state of health, its degree of activity, its life span and its history" (Sharp, 1960). All these aspects are controlled hy meteorological factors and the discipline of glaciometeorology has grown up to deal with them. [From Preface] | en_US |
