Shear‐Layer Thickness and Structure Evolves With Effective Stress in Subglacial Environments

Abstract Moving glaciers shear and deform the subglacial till beneath them, with deformation concentrated in a thin shear‐layer. This shear‐layer's properties are partially controlled by effective stress, which depends on ice thicknesses and subglacial hydrological networks. Understanding the r...
