The role of subglacial hydrology in ice streams with elevated geothermal heat flux
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020-02-10)The spatial distribution of geothermal heat flux (GHF) under ice sheets is largely unknown. Nonetheless, it is an important boundary condition in ice-sheet models, and suggested to control part of the complex surface ... -
SHMIP The subglacial hydrology model intercomparison Project
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-10-24)Subglacial hydrology plays a key role in many glaciological processes, including ice dynamics via the modulation of basal sliding. Owing to the lack of an overarching theory, however, a variety of model approximations exist ...
