NetCDF file of a model simulation of the former British Irish Ice Sheet. Supplement to: Archer, R.E., Ely, J.C., Heaton, T.J., Butcher, F.E.G., Hughes, A.L.C. and Clark, C.D. Comparing observations of subglacial linations to the output of ice sheet models: The Likelihood of Accordant Lineations Analysis (LALA) Tool. Earth Surface Processes and Landforms The folder is provided as a .tar.gz file. This can be uncompressed using a command (linux) such as: tar -xf archive.tar.gz or in Windows using 7zip. Within the folder is output from a numerical model simulation of the former British Irish Ice Sheet, modelled using PISM: https://www.pism.io/ The netcdf file contains several variables, output every 100 years: thk - ice thickness uvel - ice velocity in the x direction vvel - ice velocity in the y direction mask - a mask of ice cover This can be viewed using the ncview software and manipulated in python using packages such as netCDF4 and xarray. ...
