Main publication details
MARC recordA numerical model of the Laurentide ice sheet (abstract) / James C. Hall.
| Title: | A numerical model of the Laurentide ice sheet (abstract) / James C. Hall. |
| Author(s): | Hall, James C. |
| Date: | 1989. |
| Publisher: | Cambridge: International Glaciological Society |
| In: | Annals of Glaciology. (1989.), Vol. 12 (1989) |
| Abstract: | Describes model and presents results from one set of model runs, simulating Wisconsin glaciation of North America. In general, model predictions of flow directions and limits agree well with field evidence, but velocities are higher than expected on southern edges of ice sheet, while stresses, particularly in centre, are less than expected. |
| Notes: | Annals of Glaciology. Vol. 12 :202 (1989). |
| Keywords: | 551.336 -- Ice ages. 551.791 -- Pleistocene. E5 -- Glaciology: land ice. (*40) -- North American Arctic. |
