Climatic controls on mountain glacier basal thermal regimes dictate spatial patterns of glacial erosion
Climate has been viewed as a primary control on the rates and patterns of glacial erosion, yet our understanding of the mechanisms by which climate influences glacial erosion is limited. We hypothesize that climate controls the rates and patterns of glacial erosion by altering the basal thermal regi...
