Subglacial drainage for an ice sheet resting upon a layered deformable bed / E.M. Shoemaker, H.K.N. Leung.
Title: | Subglacial drainage for an ice sheet resting upon a layered deformable bed / E.M. Shoemaker, H.K.N. Leung. |
Author(s): | Shoemaker, E. M. Leung, H. K. N. |
Date: | 1987. |
In: | Journal of Geophysical Research. (1987.), Vol. 92(B6) (1987) |
Abstract: | Considers evacuation of basal meltwater by aquifer-channel-bed hydraulic system, especially as it affects aquifer pressurization, till deformation, and channel failure. Important result is that deformable substrates beneath temperate-based ice sheets may be unstable, particularly under conditions of diminishing profile. |
Notes: | Journal of Geophysical Research. Vol. 92(B6) :4935-4946 (1987). |
