A sliding law for glaciers of constant viscosity in the presence of subglacial cavitation.

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

A method of solution for the problem of slow flow of a Newtonian viscous glacier slipping over a rough bed is constructed, for the case where cavities form when the lubricating water film pressure reaches that of the local subglacial drainage system. -from Author
