Spatial distribution of glacial erosion rates in the St. Elias range, Alaska, inferred from a realistic model of glacier dynamics
Glaciers have been principal erosional agents in many orogens throughout much of the recent geological past. A modern example is the St. Elias Mountains in southeastern Alaska; it is a highly convergent, complex orogen, which has been glaciated for much of its history. We examine the Seward-Malaspin...
