Subglacial sediments: A regional geological template for ice flow in West Antarctica
We use aerogeophysical data to estimate the distribution of marine subglacial sediments and fault“bounded sedimentary basins beneath the West Antarctic Ice Sheet (WAIS). We find that significant ice flow occurs exclusively in regions covered by subglacial sediments. The onsets and lateral margins of...
