[HTML][HTML] Exploring the ingredients required to successfully model the placement, generation, and evolution of ice streams in the British-Irish Ice Sheet
Ice stream evolution is a major uncertainty in projections of the future of the Greenland and
Antarctic Ice sheets. Accurate simulation of ice stream evolution requires an understanding …

Linking postglacial landscapes to glacier dynamics using swath radar at Thwaites Glacier, Antarctica
Ice sheets reshape Earth's surface. Maps of the landscape formed by past ice sheets are our
best tool for reconstructing historic ice sheet behavior. But models of glacier erosion and …

[HTML][HTML] Revealing the former bed of Thwaites Glacier using sea-floor bathymetry: implications for warm-water routing and bed controls on ice flow and buttressing
The geometry of the sea floor immediately beyond Antarctica's marine-terminating glaciers is
a fundamental control on warm-water routing, but it also describes former topographic …

Bedforms of Thwaites glacier, west antarctica: character and origin
Abstract Bedforms of Thwaites Glacier, West Antarctica both record and affect ice flow, as
shown by geophysical data and simple models. Thwaites Glacier flows across the tectonic …
