Surface profiles and basal shear stresses of outlet glaciers from a Late-glacial mountain ice field in western Scotland
Abstract Surface and basal long profiles are reconstructed for 13 outlet glaciers that drained ice from a large ice field (80 km by 120 km) that formed in the western Grampians of Scotland during part of the Late-glacial period (c, 14000–10000years BP). Basal shear stresses are calculated at 5 km in...
