A Mathematical Analysis of Glacier Surges

A Mathematical Analysis of Glacier Surges

This paper describes the phenomena of glacier surges and presents a mathematical model based on realistic descriptions of glacier physics, which purports to describe the main features of the flow. The analysis reveals and predicts a variety of phenomena, many of which have been observed to occur, and gives explicit estimates for such quantities as surge front extent, "mini-surge" propagation sp...

A Theory of Glacier Surges

We propose a model of glacier flow for at least a hundred years, and a major conthat is capable of explaining temperate glacier ference (see Canadian Journal of Earth Sciences, surges. The laws of conservation of mass and vol. 6, pp. 807-1018, 1969) was devoted to their momentum are supplemented by the prescription study. Meier and Post [1969] summed up many of of a sliding law that gives the b...

a swot analysis of the english program of a bilingual school in iran

با توجه به جایگاه زبان انگلیسی به عنوان زبانی بین المللی و با در نظر گرفتن این واقعیت که دولت ها و مسئولان آموزش و پرورش در سراسر جهان در حال حاضر احساس نیاز به ایجاد موقعیتی برای کودکان جهت یاد گیری زبان انگلیسی درسنین پایین در مدارس دو زبانه می کنند، تحقیق حاضر با استفاده از مدل swot (قوت ها، ضعف ها، فرصتها و تهدیدها) سعی در ارزیابی مدرسه ای دو زبانه در ایران را دارد. جهت انجام این تحقیق در م...

The evolution of a submarine landform record following recent and multiple surges of Tunabreen glacier, Svalbard

This study focuses on the glacial landform record associated with recent surge events of Tunabreen a calving tidewater glacier in Tempelfjorden, Spitsbergen. Submarine geomorphology and recent terminal fluctuations of Tunabreen’s glacier front were studied using high-resolution multibeambathymetric data and a range of published and remotesensing sources, including topographic maps, satellite im...
