Inferring time-dependent calving dynamics at Helheim Glacier

Inferring time-dependent calving dynamics at Helheim Glacier

We perform Bayesian inference of the parameters of a time-dependent model of ice flow and calving at Helheim Glacier, East Greenland. We find that, while a time-independent calving parameterization can recover the mean observed terminus position, such a model is unable to recover sub-annual variabil...
