XS Asay-Davis, NC Jourdain, Y Nakayama - Current Climate Change …, 2017 - Springer
Recent advances in both ocean modeling and melt parameterization in ice-sheet models
point the way toward coupled ice sheet–ocean modeling, which is needed to quantify …

Progress in numerical modeling of Antarctic ice-sheet dynamics

F Pattyn, L Favier, S Sun, G Durand - Current climate change reports, 2017 - Springer
Numerical modeling of the Antarctic ice sheet has gone through a paradigm shift over the

Representation of basal melting at the grounding line in ice flow models

H Seroussi, M Morlighem - The Cryosphere, 2018 - tc.copernicus.org

Channelized melting drives thinning under a rapidly melting Antarctic ice shelf

N Gourmelen, DN Goldberg, K Snow… - Geophysical …, 2017 - Wiley Online Library
Ice shelves play a vital role in regulating loss of grounded ice and in supplying freshwater to
coastal seas. However, melt variability within ice shelves is poorly constrained and may be …

How accurately should we model ice shelf melt rates?

DN Goldberg, N Gourmelen, S Kimura… - Geophysical …, 2019 - Wiley Online Library
Assessment of ocean‐forced ice sheet loss requires that ocean models be able to represent
sub‐ice shelf melt rates. However, spatial accuracy of modeled melt is not well investigated …

Melting and refreezing in an ice shelf basal channel at the grounding line of the Kamb Ice Stream, West Antarctica

A Whiteford, HJ Horgan, WJ Leong… - Journal of Geophysical …, 2022 - Wiley Online Library
Ice shelves buttress ice streams and glaciers, slowing the rate at which they flow into the
ocean. When this buttressing is reduced, either through increased melt or calving, the …

Basal channel evolution on the Getz ice shelf, west Antarctica

AM Chartrand, IM Howat - Journal of Geophysical Research …, 2020 - Wiley Online Library
Ice shelves regulate the ice‐ocean boundary by buttressing the flux of grounded ice into the
ocean and are vulnerable to basal melt, which can lead to ice‐shelf thinning and loss of …
