Although a glacier may flow into a body of water, it forms only on land and is distinct from the much thinner sea ice and lake ice that form on the surface...
(Kivalliq). Two of the lobes abut the adjacent Labrador and Baffin ice sheets. The primary lobes flow (1) towards Manitoba and Saskatchewan; (2) toward Hudson Bay;...
lubricates the ice sheet so that it flows more rapidly. This process produces fast-flowing channels in the ice sheet — these are ice streams. In previous...
called glacial flour. Lateral moraines are those formed at the side of the ice flow, and terminal moraines were formed at the foot, marking the maximum advance...- Stanley bottle (section IceFlow)The Stanley IceFlow Tumbler is a newer product based on the success of the Stanley Quencher. With a similar insulated design, the IceFlow series utilizes...
Glacier morphology (redirect from Ice dome)like ice caps, exhibit radial flow. As ice sheets expand over the ocean, they become ice shelves. Ice sheets contain 99% of all the freshwater ice found...
Crevasse (redirect from Ice fissure)accelerate ice flow. Direct drains of water from the top of a glacier, known as moulins, can also contribute the lubrication and acceleration of ice flow. Longitudinal...
Khumbu Icefall (redirect from Khumbu Ice Fall)(1 mi) away horizontally. The speed of ice flow and the precipitous elevation drop create a bergschrund (ice berg shoulder), characterized at the top...- flow law, also referred to as Glen's flow law, is an empirically derived constitutive relation widely used as a model for the rheology of glacial ice...
mountains to enable the ice sheet to flow out to the ocean through outlet glaciers. These glaciers regularly shed ice in what is known as ice calving. Sediment...
Climate of Antarctica (section Ice cover)ice flows, albeit slowly, the ice within the ice sheet is younger than the age of the sheet itself. About 75% of the coastline of Antarctica is ice shelf...
axis parallel to the orientation of ice flow and with an up-ice (stoss) face that is generally steeper than the down-ice (lee) face. Drumlins are typically...
the flow of ice in an icefall may be measured in kilometres per year. Such rapid flow cannot be accommodated by plastic deformation of the ice. Instead...
high-resolution measurement of changes in glacial structure, ice flow, and shifts in ice dynamics, all of which agree closely with ground observations...
1941 that elongated clasts in tills tend to align with the direction of ice flow. Clasts in till may also show slight imbrication, with the clasts dipping...
Antarctic ice sheet (EAIS), West Antarctic ice sheet (WAIS), and Antarctic Peninsula (AP), due to the large differences in topography, ice flow, and glacier...
blue-ice area and remain there, or they fall elsewhere into the ice sheet and are transported to the blue-ice area by ice flow. Additionally, ice up to...
Glacial erratic (section Ice-rafted erratic)of the ice flow route. They can be transported by ice rafting, which allows quantification of the extent of glacial flooding resulting from ice dam failures...
large-scale geologic faults. However, the ice flow theories will be re-evaluated in light of new data from recent ice-penetrating radar surveys which revealed...
An ice-marginal lava flow is a lava flow that comes into direct contact with a glacier or the margins of a large ice sheet. As the lava reaches the margins...
- that the great American ice-sheet was, at least, as high, and perhaps much higher, and this would give sufficient slope for the flow to the southern border
- to its liquid form or state, but the substance also has the solid state, ice, and gaseous state, water vapor, and exists as snow, fog, dew and cloud.
- moved downslope, as if the ice flowed like a slow-moving river. Agassiz’s study of glaciers, demonstrated the powerful force of ice in the shaping of Earth’s
