Direct Measurement of Basal Water Pressures: a Pilot Study
Abstract Bore-hole drilling techniques have been used to connect with the subglacial water system of the temperate South Cascade Glacier. The water level in a connecting bore hole probably represents a direct measurement of the basal water pressure over an area at least to m in extent. Fluctuations...
