15 Reanalysis - Homogenisation Porqué necesitamos una reanalisa? Porqué siempre tenemos errores en los resultados.
16 Reanalysis - Homogenisation Porqué necesitamos una reanalisa? Porqué siempre tenemos errores en los resultados. Systematic errors (=bias) vs. Random errors (=noise) ε σ Qué son nuestros errores por La Conejeras? - cambiamentos de la área glacial - hypsometry unknown/uncertain - fixed date system lin. interpol. - inconsistent use of interpolation method
17 Reanalysis - Homogenisation Para corregir el bias: - fixed value for snow density in case of snow - filter stake values for unplausible values point data - fixed-date: recalculation of stake values acc. to lin. int. - monthly update of glacier area - use of Lidar DEM as (only) topo information - recalculation of each monthly mb with consistent interpolation method glacier-wide data
18 Reanalysis - Homogenisation Para corregir el bias: - fixed value for snow density in case of snow - filter stake values for unplausible values point data - fixed-date: recalculation of stake values acc. to lin. int. - monthly update of glacier area - use of Lidar DEM as (only) topo information - recalculation of each monthly mb with consistent interpolation method glacier-wide data
19 Reanalysis - Homogenisation Para corregir el bias: - fixed value for snow density in case of snow - filter stake values for unplausible values point data - fixed-date: recalculation of stake values acc. to lin. int. - monthly update of glacier area - use of Lidar DEM as (only) topo information - recalculation of each monthly mb with consistent interpolation method glacier-wide data
20 Reanalysis - Homogenisation Para corregir el bias: - fixed value for snow density in case of snow - filter stake values for unplausible values point data - fixed-date: recalculation of stake values acc. to lin. int. - monthly update of glacier area - use of Lidar DEM as (only) topo information - recalculation of each monthly mb with consistent interpolation method glacier-wide data
21 Reanalysis - Homogenisation What interpolation method can we use? high stake network density good spatial distibution Potential for use of different methods good elevation distribution
22 Reanalysis - Homogenisation What interpolation method can we use? high stake network density good spatial distibution good elevation distribution Potential for use of different methods Manual methods Profile method (2 variations) Contour line method Index method Geostatistical methods Kriging Topo to Raster
23 Reanalysis - Homogenisation Interpolation method: Profile method problem of non-existing elevation dependency:
24 Reanalysis - Homogenisation Interpolation method: Contour line method: 120 months? Only used for annual MB
25 Reanalysis - Homogenisation Interpolation method: Contour line method: 120 months? Only used for annual MB Index method? March & Trabant 1998 also used for Zongo Glacier

33 Results La Conejeras glacier change: = cumulative
34 Results La Conejeras glacier change:
35 Results Annual mass balance: Two methods:
36 Results Annual mass balance: Two methods: Sum of monthly MB
37 Results Annual mass balance: Two methods: Sum of monthly MB MB from annual sum of stake values
38 Uncertainties Homogenisation taken care of systematic error Random error sources: Point measurements = stake readings Spatial interpolation = interpolation method Point measurements = density conversion Uncertainties are especially important why? Error for every period 120 periods = high cumulative error Law of error propagation: Not taking into account: basal melt (dont have to), inacc. areas, less covered areas, superimposed ice,
39 Uncertainties What are the uncertainties? Point measurements = stake readings σ pt : abl. = +-20 acc = +-50mm Point measurements = density σ dens : abl = +-10kg acc = kg = 0-43mm/med=5mm Monthly uncertainty = mm Mean/med = 44/27mm Std = 106mm Cumulative uncertainty for full time series (120 months): 1259mm Spatial interpolation = interpolation method σ int : stdev (methods) * 1.96 = 0-100mm/med = 11mm
40 Uncertainties What are the uncertainties? Annual mass balance:
41 Conclusions If requirements are fulfilled a number of interpolation methods is useful Profile method does sometimes not perform well (on monthly data) Contour line method = too laborious for monthly reanalysis Index method is rebust and reliable GIS methods are similarly robust and comparable to Index results Several interpolation methods estimate uncertainties
42 Conclusions If requirements are fulfilled a number of interpolation methods is useful Profile method does sometimes not perform well (on monthly data) Contour line method = too laborious for monthly reanalysis Index method is rebust and reliable GIS methods are similarly robust and comparable to Index results Several interpolation methods estimate uncertainties For continuous measurements => INDEX method For annual reporting = > INDEX/CONTOUR line method For a complete reanalysis we recommend using additionally the GIS methods as a measure of robustness and for estimation of uncetainties.
