To demonstrate the viability of a precipitation regime change leading to a fundamentally different volume-to-area ratio of the Antarctic ice sheet, we deploy the 3D thermodynamical ice sheet/shelf model IMAU-ICE v1.1.1. In the standard set-up (Stap et al., 2021a, 2021b), climate forcing follows from...
