Unsteady flow inferred for Thwaites Glacier, and comparison with Pine Island Glacier, West Antarctica

We present a comparison of surface velocities in 1996, derived from interferometric synthetic aperture radar, with an estimate of the long-term, depth-averaged velocity based on the assumption of steady-state flow for both Pine Island Glacier and its neighbour, Thwaites Glacier, West Antarctica.
