Sediment concentrations and transport in icebergs, Scoresby Sound, East Greeland

Glaciers erode their beds by abrasion and plucking and entraining sediment on their way downwards driven by gravity. Basal ice becomes a sediment transport agent. To determine glacial transport of sediment, measurements of both the ice flux and its concentration of sediment are needed. Once glaciers...
