Antarctic Ice Thickness, Slipperiness, and Subglacial Lake Locations

This data set contains (1) ice thickness (H) and basal sliding coefficient (beta) maps for the Antarctic Ice Sheet from Arthern et al. (2015) "Flow speed within the Antarctic ice sheet and its controls inferred from satellite observations", and (2) Antarctic subglacial lake locations and e...

Description
Summary:This data set contains (1) ice thickness (H) and basal sliding coefficient (beta) maps for the Antarctic Ice Sheet from Arthern et al. (2015) "Flow speed within the Antarctic ice sheet and its controls inferred from satellite observations", and (2) Antarctic subglacial lake locations and estimated sizes from Siegfried and Fricker (2018) "Thirteen years of subglacial lake activity in Antarctica from multi-mission satellite altimetry". Data are in zarr (thickness and sliding coefficient maps) and ASCII (lake locations and sizes) formats.
