Glaciological observations were made for the study of the glacier mass balance in the Nepal Himalayas, which is characterized by the simultaneous occurrence of considerable accumulation and ablation during the summer monsoon season. The upward change of the glacier surface level and the considerable amount of deposited snow due to the summer snowfall were observed at the end of summer over the whole area of the glaciers by means of stake measurements and stratigraphic observations respectively. On the other hand, the mass balance from July to September is calculated in consideration of the ice amount to be superimposed on the glacier ice of sub-zero temperature. The growth of the superimposed ice contributed to the positive mass balance in the upper-middle part of the glacier, while the mass balance during the same period was negative in the lower part. The total of the sum mer balance for the whole area of each observed glacier is concluded to have been positive. Such a positive summer balance is attributed mainly to the accumulation in late summer.
