Alaskan glaciers: recent observations in respect to earthquake advance theory
Post AS. 1965. Alaskan glaciers: recent observations in respect to earthquake advance theory. Science. 148(3668):366-368
Preliminary aerial phtographic studies indicate that the Alaskan earthequake produced some rockfalls but no significant snow and ice avalanches on glaciers. No rapid, short-lived glacier advances (surges) are conclusievely associated with this earthuqake. Recent evidence fails to support the earthquake advance theory of Tarr and Martin.
