Variations in hydraulic efficiency of the subglacial drainage landsystem control surging and streaming regimes of outlet glaciers

Surging and streaming of glaciers are modulated by meltwater availability and pressure which controls mechanical coupling at their beds. Using laboratory-scale experimental modelling and palaeoglaciological mapping, we explore how subglacial drainage landsystems control meltwater drainage efficiency...
