Evolution of ice-shelf channels in Antarctic ice shelves

Ice shelves buttress the continental ice flux and mediate iceā€“ocean interactions. They are often traversed by channels in which basal melting is enhanced, impacting ice-shelf stability. Here, channel evolution is investigated using a transient, three-dimensional full Stokes model and geophysical dat...
