The role of crystal fabric in flow near an ice divide

Polycrystalline ice near an ice divide typically shows a crystal fabric (crystal preferred orientation) with c axes clustered vertically. We explore the effect of this fabric on the large-scale flow pattern near an ice divide. We incorporate an analytical formulation for anisotropy into a non-linear...
