Abstract: | In mainland Norway, mass balance measurements were carried out on the Hardangerjøkulen and Storbreen glaciers. Both had a small negative net balance. The two glaciers measured in Svalbard, Broggerbreen and Lovgnbreen, also had negative balances as in the previous 19 years. Length fluctuations measured at eight glacier tongues indicate that one was advancing, one in equilibrium, and six were retreating. |
