Mechanics and dynamics of pinning points on the Shirase Coast, West Antarctica
Ice rises and rumples, sites of localised ice shelf grounding, contribute to shelf-wide mechanics by generating lateral and basal shear stresses, upstream compression and downstream tension. Here, using a case study approach, we simulate Ross Ice Shelf (RIS) and tributary ice stream flow, with and w...
