Brief communication: A submarine wall protecting the Amundsen Sea intensifies melting of neighboring ice shelves ...
Disintegration of ice shelves in the Amundsen Sea has the potential to cause sea level rise by inducing an acceleration of grounded ice streams. Moore et al. (2018) proposed that using a submarine wall to block the penetration of warm water into the ice shelf cavities could reduce this risk. We use...
