Dynamics of ice stream temporal variability: Modes, scales, and hysteresis
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2013)Understanding the mechanisms governing temporal variability of ice stream flow remains one of the major barriers to developing accurate models of ice sheet dynamics and ice‒climate interactions. Here we analyze a simple ... -
Interaction and Variability of Ice Streams under a Triple-Valued Sliding Law and Non-Newtonian Rheology
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2011)Ice streams are regions of fast flowing glacier ice that transport a significant portion of the total ice flux from present ice sheets. The flow pattern of ice streams can vary both temporally and spatially. In particular, ...
