OPP-9977796The Principal Investigator will complete and prepare for publication two studies of the Variegated Glacier, a well-known surging glacier in Alaska with a large existing database. This is the first study of its most recent surge. This surge occurred in 1995 and was observed by the Principal Investigator it the reconnaissance level. He proposes to compare this surge with five or six other surges that have occurred in century. The second study is one of the relations of the surge period to mass balance and on the influence of weather on surge termination.

OPP-9977796首席调查员将完成对斑驳冰川的两项研究，并准备出版。斑驳冰川是阿拉斯加著名的汹涌冰川，现有大型数据库。这是对其最近一次激增的首次研究。这一激增发生在1995年，首席调查员在侦察一级观察到了这一现象。他建议将这次激增与百年来发生的其他五六次激增进行比较。第二个研究是涌浪周期与物质平衡的关系以及天气对浪涌终止的影响。
