A Model of Basal Hydrologic Networks and Effective Stress Beneath an Ice Sheet
Subglacial processes that control the water pressure and flow determine the large-scale behavior of the overlying ice by regulating basal resistance. We implement a model in which a steady-state subglacial conduit system is surrounded by fully saturated porous media. We investigate branching in t...
