Influence of a non-uniform velocity field on isochrone geometry along a steady flowline of an ice sheet
The relationship between velocity field and isochrone geometry along a steady flowline of an ice sheet is examined. The method is analytical and based upon the stream function and its vertically normalized form, the normalized stream function (NSF). We show that the slope of the isochrones is the sl...
