Table 2 Criterion to identify subglacial hydrology based on seasonal velocity changes
From: Seasonal velocity patterns provide insights for the soft-bed subglacial hydrology continuum
| Â | Distributed | Semi-channelized | Channelized |
|---|---|---|---|
Winter | Winter events | No/few winter events | No/few winter events |
Spring | ‘Slow’ speed-up event ~15 days after the beginning of spring | ‘Fast’ speed-up event at the beginning of spring | ‘Fast’ speed-up event at the beginning of spring |
Summer | Stable velocities | Stable velocities (+/- 5% from mean) | Variable over the summer ( > 5% variation from mean)) |
Autumn | High velocities | ||
