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. |
Notes: | Annals of Glaciology. Vol. 9 :30-34 (1987). Proceedings of the Second Symposium on Remote Sensing in Glaciology held at the University of Cambridge, United Kingdom, 8-9 and 11-12 September 1986. |
