Lateral flexure of Erebus Ice Tongue due to ocean current forcing and fast ice coupling
Ice tongues are unconfined by land on their lateral margins and are sensitive to external forcing from the ocean. They are found sporadically around the Antarctic coast but are common in the western Ross Sea. Lateral flexure creates bending stresses within these ice tongues which is likely to contri...
