Geometric evolution and ice dynamics during a surge of Bakaninbreen, Svalbard
Abstract Bakaninbreen, Svalbard, started surging in 1985 and developed a steep surge front where fast-moving ice impinged on stagnant non-surging ice. This front, which was 20- 25 m high in 1985, became a steep and heavily crevassed feature about 60 m high. The surge continued through 1986-95. Annua...
