\nProjektets forskningsomr\u00e5de, form\u00e5l og forskningssp\u00f8rgsm\u00e5l:
\n<\/strong>Snowmelt is integrally important for downstream ecosystems and the understanding of how climate change is a\ufb00ecting the mass balance of Greenland\u2019s local glaciers. Changes in snow and \ufb01rn conditions have a large impact on freshwater availability and supply on seasonal and multi-annual timescales, which a\ufb00ect predictions in snowmelt- and glacier-fed catchments, which can impact hydropower and drinking water. The aim of this project is to analyse snowline evolution throughout the year at Qasigiannguit Glacier, Kobbefjord, in order to obtain a baseline dataset of snow and \ufb01rn conditions. Terrestrial time-lapse images and optical satellite
\nimagery will be used to extract snowline information, utilizing well-established techniques in photogrammetry and remote sensing. The datasets generated through this work will form the foundation of an upscaling experiment that will de\ufb01ne spatial gradients in snow conditions between the coast and the ice sheet. This research will be anchored locally in Greenland, with strong links to local companies and educational institutions that strengthen the project\u2019s aims, dissemination pathways, and visibility. Such activities will include local involvement with our \ufb01eldwork and dissemination, and knowledge sharing about snow conditions in the Nuuk region. Established local involvement will form the basis for strong collaboration in future work and projects<\/p>\n

Metoder for kompetencebygning i form af inddragelse af samfundet<\/strong>:
\nDue to the proximity of Qasigiannguit to Nuuk, we see this as a perfect opportunity to involve local companies and academic institutions to learn about this research, and its importance in a local and global context. Key members from the educational system and a local guiding company will be included, also in the \ufb01eldwork to increase the awareness and dissemination pathways of scienti\ufb01c research conducted locally to Nuuk. This collaboration will facilitate a two-way exchange of knowledge, learning from those who spend their lives in the Nuuk backcountry all year round. This would enable us to learn about their understanding and experiences and their unique knowledge of this area, but also use their professional skills to help promote safer access to the backcountry region.<\/p>\n

Metoder for formidling overfor samfundet:
\n<\/strong>Dissemination of \ufb01ndings at Greenland Science Week, alongside project partners. By providing insight into scienti\ufb01c methods and practices, it is hoped that the participants will convey the scienti\ufb01c work at Qasigiannguit, and its importance, to their professional networks and clientele (i.e. local communities, guides, students).
