'Sublimation' is here taken to refer to water vapor mass fluxes during melt and sub freezing conditions. Annual sublimation maps are created using a trend surface regression of latitude and elevation and a Greenland DEM .The data are referred to in: Box, J. E. and K. Steffen, Sublimation estimates for the Greenland ice sheet using automated weather station observations, J. Geophys. Res., 106(D24), 33965-33982, 2001. (PDF)
