(Reduce uncertainty in projection of future sea-level change due to ice wastage): Progress report, August 1988--April 1989
Since the conclusion of our 1988 field work activities, we have been occupied with organizing field data and redesigning our numerical model. Publications are in preparation describing last summer's field experiments and the basis for our new numerical model; one manuscript presenting current m...
