A modeling study of the effect of runoff variability on the effective pressure beneath Russell Glacier, West Greenland
Basal sliding is a main control on glacier flow primarily driven by water pressure at the glacier base. The ongoing increase in surface melting of the Greenland Ice Sheet warrants an examination of its impact on basal water pressure and in turn on basal sliding. Here we examine the case of Russell G...
