The average snowline of a glacier in a given region is called the regional snowline or climatic snowline, and several approximation methods have been devised. The position of the equilibrium line of a glacier varies greatly depending on the topography around the glacier and the distribution shape of the glacier, so the snowline determined based on the equilibrium line of each glacier is called the orographic snowline. In contrast, the average snowline of a glacier in a given region is called the regional snowline or climatic snowline, and several approximation methods have been devised. *Some of the terminology that refers to "orographic snowline" is listed below.

…しかし両者は必ずしも一致しない。 氷河の均衡線の位置は,氷河のまわりの地形や氷河の分布形状によって大きく変わるので,それぞれの氷河の均衡線にもとづいて決められた雪線は地形的雪線orographic snowlineとよばれる。これに対して,ある地域全体の氷河の平均的な雪線の代表値は広域的雪線regional snowlineまたは気候的雪線climatic snowlineとよばれ,いくつかの近似法が考案されている。… ※「orographic snowline」について言及している用語解説の一部を掲載しています。 出典|株式会社平凡社世界大百科事典 第2版について | 情報 |
