Derived Quantities: A Coupled Dynamic/Thermodynamic Ice Sheet Model
This award is for support for a program of research involving the use of inverse modeling to derive information from the measured configuration of an ice sheet to yield important information about the conditions both at the bed and within the ice column. It is proposed to convert a column-averaged m...
