An exploratory modelling study of perennial firn aquifers in the Antarctic Peninsula for the period 1979–2016
<p>In this study, we focus on the model detection in the Antarctic Peninsula (AP) of so-called perennial firn aquifers (PFAs) that are widespread in Greenland and Svalbard and are formed when surface meltwater percolates into the firn pack in summer, which is then buried by snowfall and does n...
