Ice sheet modelling taking account of glacier ice compressibility

A mathematical treatment of the theory of glacier dynamics in relation to subsurface firn thickness, compressibility and the effects of densification. The analysis provides a theoretical basis for investigating heat and mass transfer processes in ice sheets with allowance for compressibility effects...
