Surface meltwater is widespread around the margin of the Antarctic Ice Sheet and has the potential to influence ice-shelf stability, ice-dynamic processes and ice-albedo feedbacks. Whilst the general spatial distribution of surface meltwater across the Antarctic continent is now relatively well know...
