The stress-dependent sediment advection without variations in the pore pressure observed in Fig.~\ref{fig:strain_distribution} is relevant for instability theories of subglacial landform development \citep{Hindmarsh1999, Fowler2000, Schoof2007, Fowler2018}. From geometrical considerations, it is likely that bed-normal stresses on the stoss side of subglacial topography are higher than on the lee side.
