References Interpretation is still in progress, but preliminary results indicate that the heating rate implies high shear stress, high enough to be important in the force balance of the ice stream as predicted. A quanti

There are two striking preliminary results. First, the nearsurface drops as the margin is approached (see figure). This very large effect, one apparently not observed before, is probably due to the ponding of cold air in
