Annual cycle in flow of Ross Ice Shelf, Antarctica: contribution of variable basal melting

Annual cycle in flow of Ross Ice Shelf, Antarctica: contribution of variable basal melting

Ice shelves play a critical role in modulating dynamic loss of ice from the grounded portion of the Antarctic Ice Sheet and its contribution to sea-level rise. Measurements of ice-shelf motion provide insights into processes modifying buttressing. Here we investigate the effect of seasonal variabili...
