Deep glacial troughs and stabilizing ridges unveiled beneath the margins of the Antarctic ice sheet
The Antarctic ice sheet has been losing mass over past decades through the accelerated
flow of its glaciers, conditioned by ocean temperature and bed topography. Glaciers …

Historical glacier change on Svalbard predicts doubling of mass loss by 2100
The melting of glaciers and ice caps accounts for about one-third of current sea-level rise,–,
exceeding the mass loss from the more voluminous Greenland or Antarctic Ice Sheets,. The …
