Seasonal evolution of the subglacial drainage system within a High Arctic polythermal valley glacier, as revealed by dye-tracing studies

Current knowledge concerning the impact of subglacial hydrology on the dynamics of polythermal glaciers is limited. Conventional wisdom suggests that subglacial hydrology has a negligible influence on surface patterns of ice dynamics in polar regions, due mainly to the presence of cold, impermeable...
