MARC recordEffect of basal water pressure and storage on the rate of sliding of a glacier at three different time scales / Mark F. Meier, W. Barclay Kamb, H. Engelhardt, Mark A. Fahnestock, Neil Frank Humphrey.
| Title: | Effect of basal water pressure and storage on the rate of sliding of a glacier at three different time scales / Mark F. Meier, W. Barclay Kamb, H. Engelhardt, Mark A. Fahnestock, Neil Frank Humphrey. |
| Author(s): | Meier, Mark F. Kamb, W. Barclay. Engelhardt, H. Fahnestock, Mark A. Humphrey, Neil Frank. |
| Date: | 1991. |
| In: | Eos : transactions, American Geophysical Union. (1991.), Vol. 72(44, supplement) (1991) |
| Abstract: | AGU Fall Meeting Program and Abstracts, December 9-13, 1991. Short time-interval measurements were made of glacier flow (basal sliding), water input, and basal water pressure at two sites 5 and 12 km above terminus of Columbia Glacier, AK; water output was measured from nearby distributary glacier terminus. Data show response of glacier sliding to changes in water input, pressure, and storage that depends on time scale of fluctuations: seasonal, annual, several days, and hourly. |
