Inversion of flow Measurements for Stress and Rheological Parameters in a Valley Glacier

Abstract Methods are developed for determining the distributions of stress and effective viscosity in a glacier, under the assumptions: the ice is quasi-viscous, the flow is time independent, and acceleration forces are negligible. Measurements of the three-dimensional distribution of velocity are n...
