Flow behavior of large ice sheets is affected mainly by c-axis orientation fabric, and the fabric formation is caused by the anisotropic characteristics in the plastic deformation property of ice crystal. There are three processes involved in fabric formation; i.e. crystal rotation (AZUMA and HIGASH...
