Controls on the growth of topographic depressions on debris-covered glaciers

Debris-covered glaciers develop complex, hummocky topography in their ablation zones, yet the processes driving the evolution of hummocky topography remain poorly understood. Thousands of enclosed topographic depressions form in the hummocky topograph
