Rise of the Ellsworth mountains and parts of the East Antarctic coast observed with GPS
constrain postglacial rebound in Antarctica. Sites in the Ellsworth mountains, West Antarctica, are rising at ≈5 ± 4 mm/yr (95 % confidence limits), as in the postglacial rebound model of Peltier, but ≈10 mm/yr slower than in the model of Ivins and James. Therefore significant ice loss from the Ells...
