Glacier geometry and flow speed determine how Arctic marine-terminating glaciers respond to lubricated beds
Basal conditions directly control the glacier sliding rate and the dynamic discharge of ice flow. Recent glacier destabilization events indicate that some marine-terminating glaciers quickly respond to lubricated beds with increased flow speed, but the underlying physics, especially how this vulnera...
