The data were gridded onto a WGS84 projection with a 2x2 km resolution. Horizontal datum: WGS84 Vertical datum: Mean sea level Ocean circulation beneath ice shelves and associated rates of melting and freezing are influenced strongly by water column thickness and depth. The shape of the cavity benea...
