Main publication details
MARC recordProposal for a constitutive equation of temperate firn / Walter Ambach, H. Eisner.
| Title: | Proposal for a constitutive equation of temperate firn / Walter Ambach, H. Eisner. |
| Author(s): | Ambach, Walter. Eisner, H. |
| Date: | 1986. |
| In: | Cold Regions Science and Technology. (1986.), Vol. 13(1) (1986) |
| Abstract: | Derives equation from deformation measurements at firn pit 20 m deep. Analytical and numerical formulation passes over into Glen's flow law for ice at transition of firn to ice. Basis of analysis is determination of shear strain-rate from tilt rate of pit axis, considering longitudinal and vertical strain-rates, compressibility of firn and triaxial pit deformation. |
| Notes: | Cold Regions Science and Technology. Vol. 13(1) :1-9 (1986). |
| Keywords: | 551.578.463 -- Snow cover, firnification. E10 -- Glaciology: snow and avalanches. |
| SPRI record no.: | 80284 |
