MARC recordThe glaciological studies of the Baffin Island Expedition, 1950. Part 5: on the variation of the shear stress on the bed of an ice cap / William H. Ward, Svenn Orvig.
| Title: | The glaciological studies of the Baffin Island Expedition, 1950. Part 5: on the variation of the shear stress on the bed of an ice cap / William H. Ward, Svenn Orvig. |
| Author(s): | Ward, William H. Orvig, Svenn. |
| Date: | 1953. |
| In: | Journal of Glaciology. (1953.), Vol. 2(14) (1953) |
| Abstract: | Applies Nye's method for calculating thickness of ice sheets to southern lobe of Barnes Ice Cap. Variations of shear stress on bed are calculated. Some values are unusually low; explanation is offered. Comments by W.H. Ward, p.247-248. |
