dc.description.abstract | The partitioning of resistive force between the bed and sides of Ice
Stream B, Antarctica , is obtained for three large areas that have bee n measured using
repeat aerial photogrammetry. Problems associated with data errors and local variations
in ice strength and velocity are reduced by considering the a really ave raged budget of
forces for each photo block. Results indicate that the bed under Ice Stream B must be very
weak and unable to provide much res instance. Mechanical l control on this ice stream
emanates almost entirely from the lateral margins. | en_US |
