Observations of pressure effects on the creep of ice single crystals
Abstract Experiments performed on ice single crystals oriented for basal slip indicate that the steady-state creep rate is only marginally affected by confining pressure up to 19 MPa, at a constant absolute temperature of 263 K. The observations Contradict earlier work at similar pressures and the d...

| Summary: | Abstract Experiments performed on ice single crystals oriented for basal slip indicate that the steady-state creep rate is only marginally affected by confining pressure up to 19 MPa, at a constant absolute temperature of 263 K. The observations Contradict earlier work at similar pressures and the disparity is examined in terms of experimental errors. |
