Surface strain-rates, Byrd Glacier, Antarctica (abstract) / John P. Scofield, Dean R. Lindstrom, Terence J. Hughes.
Title: | Surface strain-rates, Byrd Glacier, Antarctica (abstract) / John P. Scofield, Dean R. Lindstrom, Terence J. Hughes. |
Author(s): | Scofield, John P. Lindstrom, Dean R. Hughes, Terence J. |
Date: | 1989. |
Publisher: | Cambridge: International Glaciological Society |
In: | Annals of Glaciology. (1989.), Vol. 12 (1989) |
Abstract: | Contour maps of surface strain-rate components were computed. Results suggest longitudinal extensive flow in region between 40 and 10 km above grounding zone, laminar flow in vicinity of grounding zone, and longitudinal compressive flow in region between 10 and 50 km below grounding zone where flow diverges and enters Ross Ice Shelf. Flow is influenced by bedrock topography. |
Notes: | Annals of Glaciology. Vol. 12 :207 (1989). |
