Description:TAKU is a time-dependent, numerical model for the simulation of glacier flow characteristics. The model is three-dimensional in the sense that it computes the vertical variations of the horizontal velocity components. It is assumed that the glacial ice can be treated as a highly viscous Newtonian fluid. The model solves the depth-integrated two-dimensional unsteady continuity equation, together with the Navier-Stokes equations in the x- and y-directions. The model is discussed at length in the previous paper, where it is applied to Alaska's Taku Glacier. This manual describes the model, the EXEC file used for executing the FORTRAN program, the input/output files, the user-specified input variables, the output variables, a listing of the model and the auxiliary plotting routines.
