Response of marine‐terminating glaciers to forcing: time scales, sensitivities, instabilities and stochastic dynamics
Recent observations indicate that many marine‐terminating glaciers in Greenland and Antarctica are currently retreating and thinning, potentially due to long‐term trends in climate forcing. In this study, we describe a simple two‐stage model that accurately emulates the response to external forcing...
