Roughness of a subglacial conduit under Hansbreen, Svalbard

Hydraulic roughness exerts an important but poorly understood control on water pressure in subglacial conduits. Where relative roughness values are <5%, hydraulic roughness can be related to relative roughness using empirically-derived equations such as the Colebrook-White equation. General relat...
