Basal water pressure measured in boreholes drilled to the bed of Western Greenland: 2014-2017
The gradient of the hydraulic potential field at the ice-bedrock interface beneath the Greenland Ice Sheet dictates the routing and energetics of subglacial water, thereby influencing drainage system characteristics and sliding dynamics. In the ablation zone of the GrIS, variable water pressure due...
