NOTES THE EXISTENCE OF MULTIPLE STEADY STATES IN THE FLOW OF LARGE

ABSTRACT. We discuss the possibility of the occurrence of thermal instability in ice sheets and glaciers. This may arise from the non-linear viscous heating term, which could provide for the existence of multiple steady states in the flow and temperature fields: a word of warning is given about the...
