Ocean-driven basal melting of Antarctica's floating ice shelves accounts for about half of
their mass loss in steady state, where gains in ice-shelf mass are balanced by losses. Ice …

The present-day state and future of the Antarctic Ice Sheet depend on the rate at which the
ocean melts its fringing ice shelves. Ocean heat must cross many physical and dynamical …

Abstract The Pope, Smith and Kohler glaciers, in the Amundsen Sea Embayment of West
Antarctica, have experienced enhanced ocean-induced ice-shelf melt, glacier acceleration …

While twentieth century sea-level rise was dominated by thermal expansion of ocean water,
mass loss from glaciers and ice sheets is now a larger annual contributor. There is …

The combination of the Pine Island Ice Shelf (PIIS) draft and a seabed ridge beneath it form
a topographic barrier, restricting access of warm Circumpolar Deep Water to a cavity inshore …

Fjord dynamics influence oceanic heat flux to the Greenland ice sheet. Submarine iceberg
melting releases large volumes of freshwater within Greenland's fjords, yet its impact on fjord …

We introduce PARASO, a novel five-component fully-coupled regional climate model over
an Antarctic circumpolar domain covering the full Southern Ocean. The state-of-the-art …

Subglacial freshwater discharge from beneath Antarctic glaciers likely has a strong impact
on ice shelf basal melting. However, the difficulty in directly observing subglacial flow …

The Larsen B ice shelf collapsed in 2002 losing an area twice the size of Greater London to
the sea (3,000 km2), in an event associated with widespread supraglacial lake drainage …

The spatial distribution of ocean-induced melting beneath buttressing ice shelves is often
cited as an important factor controlling Antarctica's sea-level contribution. Using numerical …
