Effects of nonlinear rheology, temperature and anisotropy on the relationship between age and depth at ice divides

Ice flow in divide areas is strongly anisotropic. The evolution of ice fabric, from the onset of divide flow towards steady state with a fully developed fabric, has been shown to profoundly affect both the stratigraphy and surface topography of ice divides. Here, we investigate the effects of ic...
