Deformation and its surface expression in stressed planetary materials by Seltzer, Cassandra

“…This shows that we can use the melt-induced changes to properties in the deforming Earth, for example, as an indicator of short-term stress fields. Chapter 3 applies these findings to the evolution of icy systems through simulated deformation of ice-melt aggregates, suggesting that current seismic studies which do not correct for the orientation of melt may misinterpret deformation at the base of warm ice sheets. …”
