Seasonal variability in Antarctic ice shelf velocities forced by sea surface height variations
<p>Antarctica's ice shelves resist the flow of grounded ice towards the ocean through “buttressing” arising from their contact with ice rises, rumples, and lateral margins. Ice shelf thinning and retreat reduce buttressing, leading to increased delivery of mass to the ocean that adds to g...
