Seasonal variations in the flow of land-terminating glaciers in central-west Greenland using Sentinel-1 imagery
Land-terminating sectors of the Greenland ice sheet flow faster in summer after surface meltwater reaches the subglacial drainage system. Speedup occurs when the subglacial drainage system becomes saturated, leading to a reduction in the effective pressure which promotes sliding of the overlying ice...
