Consistent approximations and boundary conditions for ice-sheet dynamics from a principle of least action

The formulation of a physical problem in terms of a variational (or action) principle conveys significant advantages for the analytical formulation and numerical solution of that problem. One such problem is ice-sheet dynamics as described by non-Newtonian Stokes flow, for which the variational prin...
