Here are some materials for learning about ice sheets and basal sliding:

recorded lecture from Mar 2nd I gave to my glaciology class on basal sliding: https://columbia.hosted.panopto.com/Panopto/Pages/Viewer.aspx?id=3592050a-6896-4a62-af5d-afb9014a5841
slides from that lecture L7_EESCGU4220_Basal_Slip_2023.pdf
the start of a chapter of an online textbook about glaciology. This chapter is on ice flow. It is incomplete, but could still be useful: https://ldeo-glaciology.github.io/glaciology-intro-book/sections/ice_flow/ice-flow-intro.html
slides from a lecture by Prof. Alex Robel, Georgia Tech: https://github.com/aarobel/GlaciologyClass/blob/master/Slides/7_IceBedInterface.pdf (whole repo here https://github.com/aarobel/GlaciologyClass/tree/master)

@hoffmaao, what are you favorite resources to share here to get people up to speed on ice sheet dynamics and basal sliding?

hoffmaao commented 1 year ago

I really like the slides that Ian Hewitt has put together on this topic for a glaciology short course. There are also some great slides that others use to teach the glaciology sequence at the UW, and I'll see if I can organize some of that content and link it here!

Nice! @glugeorge had some great slides from Ed Beuler too.

I really like the Karthaus slides Andrew! Here are the McCarthy slides from Ed Beuler that Jonny mentioned: https://glaciers.gi.alaska.edu/sites/default/files/mccarthy/Lecture_numerical_Bueler.pdf

@Templar129, @novoland095, any updates form you on this? Have you taken a look at this material? Do you have any questions?

Templar129 commented 1 year ago

@jkingslake Hi, Professor! I have read the basal sliding slides, and the course material @hoffmaao has provided. I now have a basic understanding on glacial sliding and what factors that controls the movement of it. I have two midterms this week, so I plan to read more material such as the lecture from Prof. Alex Robels after I finish my midterms today. I do have some problems in understanding Weertman's theory, and I think I should learn more about it.

@racheetmatai, I added a list of papers (in PR #25): https://github.com/ldeo-glaciology/LEAP-Cryo-planning/blob/main/papers.md
