Ice shelves, which are mainly found in Antarctica consist of floating extensions of ice sheets.They provide an interface for the interactions between the ice sheet and the ocean. Althoughthey present their own flow dynamics, ice shelves remain attached to the grounded ice, thusregulate ice discharge...
