       -
       -    Water pressure fluctuations control variability in sediment
       -    flux and slip dynamics beneath glaciers and ice streams
       -
       -    Rapid ice loss is facilitated by sliding over beds consisting
       -    of reworked sediments and erosional products, commonly referred
       -    to as till. The dynamic interplay between ice and till reshapes
       -    the bed, creating landforms preserved from past glaciations.
       -    Leveraging the imprint left by past glaciations as constraints
       -    for projecting future deglaciation is hindered by our incomplete
       -    understanding of evolving basal slip. Here, we develop a continuum
       -    model of water-saturated, cohesive till to quantify the interplay
       -    between meltwater percolation and till mobilization that governs
       -    changes in the depth of basal slip under fast-moving ice. Our
       -    model explains the puzzling variability of observed slip depths
       -    by relating localized till deformation to perturbations in
       -    pore-water pressure. It demonstrates that variable slip depth
       -    is an inherent property of the ice-meltwater-till system, which
