A model for the formation of eskers
We develop a mathematical model for esker formation by the continuous deposition of sediments near the mouth of water‐filled subglacial tunnels. We assume a retreating ice sheet margin and prescribe meltwater and sediment supply to a channelized subglacial drainage system. The hydrodynamic model for...
