Collaborative Research: Controls on the motion of soft-bedded glaciers from hourly to seasonal observations of force budget and basal conditions at Breidamerkurjokull, Iceland

Funds are provided to support a study of the spatial and temporal variability in basal stress regime of Breiðamerkurjökull, a glacier with deformable sediments at its base (a soft-bedded glacier). Soft-bedded ice masses are thought to be particularly sensitive to climate change. Yet, the mechanics o...
