Strain rates of a 25 m deep firn pit in an Alpine glacier and a related constitutive equation of temperate firn (Kesselwandferner, Oetztal Alps, 1983-1989) / Walter Ambach, H. Eisner, J. Huber, H. Schneider.
Title: | Strain rates of a 25 m deep firn pit in an Alpine glacier and a related constitutive equation of temperate firn (Kesselwandferner, Oetztal Alps, 1983-1989) / Walter Ambach, H. Eisner, J. Huber, H. Schneider. |
Author(s): | Ambach, Walter. Eisner, H. Huber, J. Schneider, H. |
Date: | 1989. |
In: | Zeitschrift für Gletscherkunde und Glazialgeologie. (1989.), Vol. 25(2) (1989) |
Abstract: | Published in 1992. Deformation measurements carried out in central part of accumulation area. From measured strain rates and stress conditions in situ, constitutive equation for temperate firn was derived as function of snow density. Equation is composed of two parts: first describes changes in shape with constant volume, and second describes changes in volume with constant shape. Constitutive equation reduces to Glen's flow law for incompressible ice as limiting case. |
