[HTML][HTML] Antarctic ice rises and rumples: Their properties and significance for ice-sheet dynamics and evolution
Locally grounded features in ice shelves, called ice rises and rumples, play a key role

Stability of Ice Shelves and Ice Cliffs in a Changing Climate
The largest uncertainty in future sea-level rise is loss of ice from the Greenland and Antarctic
Ice Sheets. Ice shelves, freely floating platforms of ice that fringe the ice sheets, play a …

Volume loss from Antarctic ice shelves is accelerating
The floating ice shelves surrounding the Antarctic Ice Sheet restrain the grounded ice-sheet
flow. Thinning of an ice shelf reduces this effect, leading to an increase in ice discharge to …

Marine ice sheet collapse potentially under way for the Thwaites Glacier Basin, West Antarctica
Resting atop a deep marine basin, the West Antarctic Ice Sheet has long been considered
prone to instability. Using a numerical model, we investigated the sensitivity of Thwaites …

Surface melt and runoff on Antarctic ice shelves at 1.5 C, 2 C, and 4 C of future warming
The future surface mass balance (SMB) of Antarctic ice shelves has not been constrained
with models of sufficient resolution and complexity. Here, we force the high‐resolution …

West Antarctic surface melt triggered by atmospheric rivers
Recent major melting events in West Antarctica have raised concerns about a potential
hydrofracturing and ice shelf instability. These events often share common forcings of …

Episodic dynamic change linked to damage on the Thwaites Glacier Ice Tongue
The stability and dynamics of Thwaites Glacier depend on the structural properties of its
marine terminus; however, the relationship between these variables on the floating ice …
