In this paper we study a model problem describing the movement of a glacier under Glen's flow law and investigated by Colinge and Rappaz [Colinge and Rappaz, ESAIM: M2AN 33 (1999) 395-406]. We establish error estimates for finite element approximation using the results of Chow [Chow, SIAM J. Numer. Analysis 29 (1992) 769-780] and Liu and Barrett [Liu and Barrett, SIAM J. Numer. Analysis 33 (1996) 98-106] and give an analysis of the convergence of the successive approximations used in [Colinge and Rappaz, ESAIM: M2AN 33 (1999) 395-406]. Supporting numerical convergence studies are carried out and we also demonstrate the numerical performance of an a posteriori error estimator in adaptive mesh refinement computation of the problem.
