摘要：Clusters of surge-type glaciers occur in many areas peripheral to the Greenland ice sheet (Weidick, 1988). In East Greenland (68–72° N), 30–70% of glaciers are of surge type, but only five of these have been described (Jiskoot and others, 2003, and references therein). Regional surge characteristics and dynamics have been used to suggest a hydrologically controlled surge mechanism, with surge behaviour that is more Alaskan-type than Svalbard-type in this region (Jiskoot and others, 2001, 2003; Murray and others, 2002, 2003; Pritchard and others, 2005).
