Antarctic subglacial lakes drain through sediment-floored canals: theory and model testing on real and idealized domains
Over the past decade, satellite observations of ice surface height have revealed that active subglacial lake systems are widespread under the Antarctic Ice Sheet, including the ice streams. For some of these systems, additional observations of ice-stream motion have shown that lake activity can affe...
