Subglacial permafrost dynamics and erosion inside subglacial channels driven by surface events in Svalbard
Cold glacier beds, i.e., where the ice is frozen to its base, are widespread in polar regions. Common theories state that stable permafrost should exist under glacier beds on shorter timescales, varying from years to decades. Presently, only a few direct measurements of both subglacial permafrost an...
