Abstract
⺠We use the LGM moraines of Pukaki glacier as a constraint on a simple glacier model. ⺠It is important to consider the bed profile when estimating climate from moraines. ⺠Modeling shows a LGM temperature decrease of 7.0-8.0 °C from present. ⺠Changes in bed profile can cause kilometer-scale glacier length change.
