Theoretical calving rates from glaciers along ice walls grounded in water of variable depths
Abstract Calving has been studied for glaciers ranging from slow polar glaciers that calve on dry land, such as on Deception Island (63.0° S, 60.6° W) in Antarctica, through temperate Alaskan tide-water glaciers, to fast outlet glaciers that float in fiords and calve in deep water, such as Jakobshav...
