Effect Of Inversion Winds On Topographic Detail And Mass Balance On Inland Ice Sheets
Steady-state gravity flow of air (inversion wind) on sloping snow-covered ice sheets is analyzed for sensitivity to local topography. Topographic features of the order of a few kilometres or less in length are too small to affect the direction and speed of this air flow. Air flow on a longer scale s...
