Principles of Glacier Mechanics

Why study glaciers? some basic concepts mass balance flow of a crystalline material the velocity field in a glacier temperature distribution in polar ice sheets the coupling between a glacier and its bed water flow in and under glaciers - geomorphic implications stress and deformation stress and velocity distribution in an idealized glacier applications of stress and deformation principles to classical problems response of glaciers to changes in mass balance problems.
