PISM simulations of idealized shear-margin vs. ice-stream melt

PISM model output, runs scripts and plotting scripts. The idealized simulations investigate the influence of basal melting in two different ice-shelf regions on the time-dependent response of an isothermal, inherently buttressed ice-sheet-shelf system.

Description
Summary:PISM model output, runs scripts and plotting scripts. The idealized simulations investigate the influence of basal melting in two different ice-shelf regions on the time-dependent response of an isothermal, inherently buttressed ice-sheet-shelf system. The basal-melt perturbations are applied close to the grounding line in the ice-shelf's 1) ice-stream region, where the ice shelf is fed by the fastest ice masses that stream through the upstream bed trough and 2) shear margins, where the ice flow is slower.
