Flow conditions were reconstructed for 18 alpine glaciers in the Hidaka Range, during the LGM (Last Glacial Maximum, about 18, 000 y.B.P.), assuming a plastic and laminar flow without basal sliding.Reconstructed annual discharge through the cross section at the ELA (Equilibrium Line Altitude)on 18 glaciers almost coincided with the amount of reconstructed annual net ablation (or accumulation)below(or above)the ELA, when the mean ice temperature was assumed to be -7°C and -8°C, together with assumed air temperature cooling of 6°8°C.The flow velocity range at the center of the ELA was between 1 and 20 m/a, depending on the surface gradient and the ice thickness.Comparison of these flow velocities with those of present day glaciers, without basal sliding, suggests that the glaciers of the Hidaka Range during the LGM were similar in character to small modern cirque and valley glaciers in the world.
