However, the Coulomb-frictional parameterizations do not describe the actual sediment deformation, but describe the basal friction felt by the flowing ice. Shear deformation is known to deepen under increasing effective normal stress \citep{Fischer1997, Iverson1999, Boulton2001, Damsgaard2013}, and this may be a primary ingredient for growth of subglacial topography \citep[e.g.][]{Schoof2007}. - - - -%\citet{Iverson2001} demonstrated that perturbations in effective stress at depth can distribute deformation away from the ice-bed interface. - - +In order to model soft-bed sliding and till continuity, a model is necessary that accurately describes subglacial shear strain while being in accordance to Mohr-Coulomb friction and sediment near-plastcitiy. +The discrete element model for sediment deformation by \citet{Damsgaard2013} includes Coulomb-frictional physics and sediment strain distribution, but is far too costly for coupled ice-till computations. @@ -423,6 +419,10 @@ The stick-slip experiments (Fig.~\ref{fig:stick_slip} to~\ref{fig:stick_slip_dep Practically all of the shear strain through a perturbation cycle occurs above the skin depth (magenta line in Fig.~\ref{fig:stick_slip_depth}). +\section{Discussion}% +\label{sec:discussion} +\citet{Iverson2001} demonstrated that random perturbations in effective stress at depth can distribute deformation away from the ice-bed interface. + \section{Conclusion}% \label{sec:conclusion}
