Figure 8

Cluster mean backward trajectory (16-day mean) for the deposition location of Urdok glacier (asterisk in the figure) in August 2005 derived from NCEP/NCAR reanalysis data with the HYSPLIT 7 simulation (a). The upper panel shows the travelled trajectory during two weeks, while the lower panel depicts the height above ground during this time period. (b) The mean large scale pressure distribution (reduced to sea level) is displayed for the same time period.
