Mechanical forcing of water pressure in a hydraulically isolated reach beneath Western Greenland's ablation zone

A suite of surface and basal measurements during and after borehole drilling is used to perform in situ investigation of the local basal drainage system and pressure forcing in western Greenland. Drill and borehole water temperature were monitored during borehole drilling, which was performed with d...
