Flow behaviour at the confluence of two glaciers. A case study of Unteraargletscher / Gudmundur Hilmar Gudmandsson.
Title: | Flow behaviour at the confluence of two glaciers. A case study of Unteraargletscher / Gudmundur Hilmar Gudmandsson. |
Author(s): | Gudmandsson, Gudmundur Hilmar. |
Date: | 1992. |
In: | Eos : transactions, American Geophysical Union. (1992.), Vol. 73(43, fall meeting supplement) (1992) |
Abstract: | Abstract only. Glacier in Swiss Alps is formed by confluence of Finsteraar- and Lauteraargletscher, which flow towards each other at angle of 90°. Finite-element modelling was used to investigate flow, and radio echo-soundings were carried out to map glacier bed. Conclusions drawn on rheological behaviour of temperate ice and applicability of Glen's flow law in this case. |
