Record #90488:

Co-isotopic signature of two mechanisms of basal-ice formation in Arctic outlet glaciers / Roland Souchez, R.D. (Reginald D.) Lorrain, J.-L. Tison, Jean Jouzel.

Title: Co-isotopic signature of two mechanisms of basal-ice formation in Arctic outlet glaciers / Roland Souchez, R.D. (Reginald D.) Lorrain, J.-L. Tison, Jean Jouzel.
Author(s): Souchez, Roland.
Lorrain, R. D.
Tison, J. -L.
Jouzel, Jean.
Date: 1988.
Publisher: Cambridge: International Glaciological Society
In: Annals of Glaciology. (1988.), Vol. 10 (1988)
Abstract: Basal ice is formed by regelation as consequence of both pressure-melting and freezing-on at glacier sole. Study of D/H and ¹⁸O/¹⁶O ratios in basal ice from five Arctic glaciers indicates that co-isotopic signature exists for these two mechanisms of formation. Dispersed and stratified facies of basal ice are related, respectively, to occurrence of regelation and to freezing-on at glacier base. Origin is tentatively connected with onset of basal sliding and zone of bed decoupling due to basal water pressure in these glaciers.
