Ross Ice Shelf Displacement and Elastic Plate Waves Induced by Whillans Ice Stream Slip Events

Abstract Ice shelves are assumed to flow steadily from their grounding lines to the ice front. We report the detection of ice‐propagating extensional Lamb (plate) waves accompanied by pulses of permanent ice shelf displacement observed by co‐located Global Navigation Satellite System receivers and s...
