How deformation influences the flow and fracture of glacier ice
Most of the mass loss from the Antarctic Ice Sheet (AIS) occurs by dynamic flow of ice from the interior of the ice sheet to the margins, where the ice flows on the ocean, ultimately breaks apart into icebergs, and melts into the ocean. Due to anthropogenic-caused shifts in the climate system, many...
