Formation of mega-scale glacial lineations observed beneath a West Antarctic ice stream

EC King, RCA Hindmarsh, CR Stokes - Nature Geoscience, 2009 - nature.com

speed is strongly modulated by interactions between the ice and the underlying sediments …

A conceptual model of the deglaciation of Atlantic Canada

J Shaw, DJW Piper, GBJ Fader, EL King… - Quaternary Science …, 2006 - Elsevier
We present a conceptual model for the deglaciation of Atlantic Canada in which a role is
played by ice streams. The ice margin lay close to the edge of the continental shelf at the last …

Size, shape and spatial arrangement of mega‐scale glacial lineations from a large and diverse dataset

M Spagnolo, CD Clark, JC Ely… - Earth surface …, 2014 - Wiley Online Library
Mega‐scale glacial lineations (MSGLs) are a characteristic landform on ice stream beds.
Solving the puzzle of their formation is key to understanding how ice interacts with its bed …

Rapid, buoyancy-driven ice-sheet retreat of hundreds of metres per day
