Influence of 3D earth structure on glacial isostatic adjustment in the Russian Arctic
Analyses of glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA) and deglacial relative sea-level (RSL) change in the Russian Arctic deliver important insights into the Earth's viscosity structure and the deglaciation history of the Eurasian ice sheet complex. Here, we validate the 1D GIA models ICE-6G_C (VM5a)...
