[1] Despite the importance of rapidly-flowing ice streams to ice sheet mass balance, their incorporation into numerical ice sheet models is a major scientific challenge. This introduces large uncertainties in model output and inhibits a more complete...

What controls the location of ice streams? (2010)
Journal Article
Winsborrow, M., Clark, C., & Stokes, C. (2010). What controls the location of ice streams?. Earth-Science Reviews, 103(1-2), 45-59. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.earscirev.2010.07.003

Ice streams influence ice sheet mass balance and stability but key aspects of their behaviour remain poorly understood. This paper reviews and discusses one very important aspect: what controls their location in an ice sheet? Seven potential controls... Read More about What controls the location of ice streams?.
