Record #108575:

The initiation of maritime ice sheets / Andrew Kerr.

Title: The initiation of maritime ice sheets / Andrew Kerr.
Author(s): Kerr, Andrew.
Date: 1990.
In: Zeitschrift für Gletscherkunde und Glazialgeologie. (1990.), Vol. 26(1) (1990)
Abstract: Published 1992. Investigates set of possible climatic configurations that can initiate ice-sheet formation in maritime climate. Uses coupled numerical models of climate and ice sheets to obtain quantitative estimates of necessary climatic deterioration to grow ice sheet. Experiments carried out for former Scottish ice sheet. Sea temperature, topography and precipitation levels play key roles; variations in solar radiation are insignificant.
