Bucki (2006), Rapid erosion of soft sediments by tidewater glacier advance: Taku Glacier

[1] Taku Glacier in southeast Alaska has advanced 7.5 km over the last 115 years, overriding its own glaciomarine and outwash sediments. We have documented rapid erosion of these sediments by comparing radio echo soundings (RES) along five transects (2003)(2004)(2005) to earlier RES surveys (1989 an...
