A Flow-line Model for Calculating the Surface Profile and the Velocity, Strain-rate, and Stress Fields in an Ice Sheet
1988
Journal of Glaciology
A flow-line model is presented for calculating the surface profile and the velocity, strain-rate, and stress fields in an ice sheet with given base-elevation profile, ice thickness at the dome (divide), flow-law parameters, mass-balance distribution, and convergence/divergence conditions along the flow line. The model, which is based on a "quasi-similarity" hypothesis as regards the horizontal velocity-depth profiles, accounts for changes along the flow line in the depth distributions of
