European heat waves 2022: contribution to extreme glacier melt in Switzerland inferred from automated ablation readings

Abstract ± - 1 ± 3 of water, corresponding to 35 % of the overall glacier mass loss during that summer. The same 25 d of heat waves caused a glacier mass loss that corresponds to 56 % of the average mass loss experienced over the entire melt season during the summers 2010–2020, demonstrating the relevance of heat waves for seasonal melt.
