Longitudinal Variations in Glacial Flow: Theory and Test Using Data from the Byrd Station Strain Network, Antarctica
Abstract A theory advanced by Budd (1970) for ice-flow variation due to bed effects is improved and applied to the flow of the ice sheet leading to Byrd Station, Antarctica. Linear viscous rheology is used and a biharmonic equation for stress and strain-rate variation is solved. Basal boundary condi...
