ICESat-2-derived grounding zone product for Antarctica
This data set provides a comprehensive Antarctic grounding zone mapping, including the landward limit of tidal flexure, the inshore limit of hydrostatic equilibrium and the break-in-slope, based on the Ice, Cloud, and land Elevation Satellite 2 (ICESat-2) laser altimetry ATL06 Land Ice Height produc...

Summary: | This data set provides a comprehensive Antarctic grounding zone mapping, including the landward limit of tidal flexure, the inshore limit of hydrostatic equilibrium and the break-in-slope, based on the Ice, Cloud, and land Elevation Satellite 2 (ICESat-2) laser altimetry ATL06 Land Ice Height product acquired between March 2019 and September 2020. The grounding zone estimates were derived from automated techniques using ICESat-2 repeat tracks. |
