Record #85502:

Microearthquakes under and alongside Ice Stream B, Antarctica, detected by a new passive seismic array / Donald D. Blankenship, Sridhar Anandakrishnan, J.L. Kempf, Charles R. Bentley.

Title: Microearthquakes under and alongside Ice Stream B, Antarctica, detected by a new passive seismic array / Donald D. Blankenship, Sridhar Anandakrishnan, J.L. Kempf, Charles R. Bentley.
Author(s): Blankenship, Donald D.
Anandakrishnan, Sridhar.
Kempf, J. L.
Bentley, Charles R.
Date: 1987.
In: Annals of Glaciology. (1987.), Vol. 9 (1987)
Abstract: Describes network, first deployed during 1985-86 field season. During 85 h of monitoring on ice stream, 25 microearthquakes were recorded, 16 associated with crevassing near margins and nine with low-angle thrusting near base. Demonstrates that virtually no dissipation of energy takes place through brittle fracture near base, although fracture associated with microearthquakes may play role in subglacial erosion.
