Ice Shelf

-West Antarctic Ice Sheet (WAIS) has potential for collapse-WAIS is classified as a marine ice sheet, i.e. part of it is grounded on land below sea level and the other part floats on the oceans as ice shelves-Dynamics of ice behavior at grounding line (junction of grounded ice with ice shelf) signif...
