Freeze-on limits bed strength beneath sliding glaciers
Discharge from sliding outlet glaciers controls uncertainty in projections for future sea level. Remarkably, over 90% of glacial area is subject to gravitational driving stresses below 150 kPa (median ∼70 kPa). Longstanding explanations that appeal to the shear-thinning rheology of ice tend to overp...
