A Transient Coupled Ice Flow‐Damage Model to Simulate Iceberg Calving From Tidewater Outlet Glaciers
Abstract Iceberg calving, the detachment of an ice block at the glacier front, is the main process responsible for the dynamic mass loss from the ice sheets to the ocean. Understanding this process is essential to accurately predict ice sheet response to the future climate. We present a transient mu...
