Strong impact of sub-shelf melt parameterisation on ice-sheet retreat in idealised and realistic Antarctic topography
Future projections of sea-level rise under strong warming scenarios are dominated by mass loss in the marine-grounded sectors of West Antarctica, where thinning shelves as a result of warming oceans can lead to reduced buttressing. This consequently leads to accelerated flow from the upstream ground...
