As part of the Mountain Hydrology team, Phd student Emmy Stigter focuses her efforts on snow sublimation, the direct loss of snow to the atmosphere. Snow has always fascinated Emmy, how it changes over time and space, and she discovered that sublimation plays an important role in the hydrological cycle of the Himalayas.
