+Glacial flow can reshape the Earth surface through erosion and
+deposition. Many past and present ice sheets lie on soft beds, and till
+mobilization and transport is governed by the degree of basal coupling,
+fluctuations in thermal state, subglacial hydrology, and the mechanics of
+the basal till itself. Changes in basal topography due to ice movement
+could theoretically feed back onto ice-flow dynamics. For example,
+the buildup of sedimentary grounding-zone wedges at the marine termini
+of ice streams may stabilize their position against local sea-level
+change. However, modeling of subglacial till advection has previously
+relied on fluid-like rheologies, which contrasts the now established
+concensus of Mohr-Coulomb plasticity.
+<br><br>
+In our work, we aim to improve the parameterization of till advection by
+glacial flow. We compare a new continuum model for till against laboratory
+consolidation and ring-shear experiments. We show how transient dynamics
+in porosity and strength affect the mechanics under non-steady forcings,
+such as glacier stick-slip or surge. We couple the till continuum model
+to an ice-stream model, and demonstrate how till transport varies when
+ice flows over simple soft-bed basal geometries, and affects ice-stream
+sensitivity to external forcings.</blockquote>
