Ocean/ice interaction at the base of deep drafted Antarctic ice shelves modifies the physical properties of inflowing shelf waters to become Ice Shelf Water (ISW).In contrast to the conditions at the atmosphere/ocean interface, the increased hydrostaticpressure at the glacial base causes gases embed...
