Geomorphology under ice streams: moving from form to process

CR Stokes - Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, 2018 - Wiley Online Library
Ice streams are integral components of an ice sheet's mass balance and directly impact on
sea level. Their flow is governed by processes at the ice‐bed interface which create …

Subglacial water storage and drainage beneath the Fennoscandian and Barents Sea ice sheets
