A theoretical steady state profile of ice sheets (two-dimentional model)

The Nye's kinematic theory of ice sheet profiles is revised on the basis of the conservation law of ice mass, because the Nye's ice sheet model or the revised Haefeli's model does not satisfy the ice mass conservation law and therefore they cannot have a steady state. In the present r...
