The marginal shear stress of Ice Stream B , West Antarctica
To ascertain whether the , ·elocity of Ice Stream B, \\'est Antarctica, may be controlled by the stres e in its marginal shear zones \ the .. Snake" and the .. Dragon'· ), we undertook a determination of the marginal hear stress in the Dragon near Camp up B by using ice itself as a stress meter. The ob erved marginal shear strain rate of0.14 a I is used to calculate the marginal shear stress fr...
متن کاملChanges in the Margin of Ice Stream C, Antarctica
We present results from satellite imagery, ice motion surveys, and ice-penetrating radar studies of a portion of the north margin of Ice Stream C, one of the ice streams draining the West Antarctic Ice Sheet to the Ross Embayment. Our studies suggest that the shutdown of Ice Stream C about 150 years ago was not a single event but a sequence involving stagnation of ice and migration of the ice s...
متن کاملSeismic observations of transient subglacial water-flow beneath MacAyeal Ice Stream, West Antarctica
[1] New seismic observations of harmonic tremors beneath MacAyeal Ice Stream, West Antarctica are reported. Each of the two tremor events that we recorded during a six week period had sustained arrival of 3 Hz energy for approximately 10 minutes. During that time the source location migrated a few kilometers. The harmonic nature of the tremors is interpreted as the result of resonance in subgla...

Ice Shelf Water plume flow beneath FilchnerRonne Ice Shelf, Antarctica
[1] A two-dimensional plume model is used to study the interaction between FilchnerRonne Ice Shelf, Antarctica and its underlying ocean cavity. Ice Shelf Water (ISW) plumes are initiated by the freshwater released from a melting ice shelf and, if they rise, may become supercooled and deposit marine ice due to the pressure increase in the in situ freezing temperature. The aim of this modeling st...
