Basal conditions beneath a soft-bedded polythermal surge-type glacier: Bakaninbreen, Svalbard
Murray, T.; Porter, P.R. (2001)Bakaninbreen, Svalbard is a subpolar glacier that began a prolonged surge in 1985. A steep surge-front propagated downglacier at rates of up to 470 cm day−1 over the period 1985–1995. During 1994 and 1995 the glacier was ... -
Glacier surge propagation by thermal evolution at the bed
Murray, T.; Stuart, G.W.; Miller, P.J.; Woodward, J.; Smith, A.M.; Porter, P.R.; Jiskoot, H. (2000)Bakaninbreen, southern Svalbard, began a prolonged surge during 1985. In 1986, an internal reflecting horizon on radio echo sounding data was interpreted to show that the position of the surge front coincided with a ... -
Mechanical and hydraulic properties of till beneath Bakaninbreen, Svalbard
Porter, P.R.; Murray, T. (2001)Bakaninbreen, Svalbard, was in the late phase of a prolonged surge during 1995-96. In order to investigate the nature of the basal mechanical and hydraulic regime, sets of tilt sensors equipped with pore-pressure sensors ... -
Recent High-Arctic glacial sediment redistribution : a process perspective using airborne lidar
Irvine-Fynn, T.D.L.; Barrand, N.E.; Porter, P.R.; Hodson, A.J.; Murray, T. (2010)Progressive glacier thinning, retreat and mass loss in the High-Arctic is increasingly exposing forefield sediments to processes of mobilisation and redistribution. In this paper, we quantify forefield sediment redistribution ...
