Constraining the geothermal heat flux in Greenland at regions of radar-detected basal water

Constraining the geothermal heat flux in Greenland at regions of radar-detected basal water

The spatial distribution of basal water critically impacts the evolution of ice sheets. Current estimates of basal water distribution beneath the Greenland Ice Sheet (GrIS) contain large uncertainties due to poorly constrained boundary conditions, primarily from geothermal heat flux (GHF). The exist...
