The ability to simulate the surface energy balance is key to studying land–atmosphere interactions; however, it remains a weakness in Arctic polar sciences. Based on the analysis of meteorological data from 1 June to 30 September 2014 from an automatic weather station on the glacier Austre Lovénbreen, near Ny–Ålesund, Svalbard, we established a surface energy balance model to simulate surface melt. The results reveal that the net shortwave radiation accounts for 87% (39 W m^–2) of the energy sources, and is controlled by cloud cover and surface albedo. The sensible heat equals 6 W m^–2 and is a continuous energy source at the glacier surface. Net longwave radiation and latent heat account for 31% and 5% of heat sinks, respectively. The simulated summer mass balance equals –793 mm w.e., agreeing well with the observation by an ultrasonic ranger.

模拟表面能量平衡的能力是研究陆地-大气相互作用的关键；然而，它仍然是北极极地科学的一个弱点。基于对斯瓦尔巴群岛新奥勒松附近冰川 Austre Lovénbreen 自动气象站 2014 年 6 月 1 日至 9 月 30 日的气象数据的分析，我们建立了一个表面能量平衡模型来模拟地表融化。结果表明，净短波辐射占能源的87%（39 W m ^–2），受云量和地表反照率控制。显热等于 6 W m ^–2 并且是冰川表面的连续能源。净长波辐射和潜热分别占散热器的 31% 和 5%。模拟的夏季质量平衡等于 –793 mm we，与超声波护林员的观察结果非常吻合。
