Rare jkulhlaup events, also known as subglacial lake outburst flood events, have been observed at the Law Dome ice margin and provide an insight into the physical characteristics of subglacial meltwater and drainage. The subglacial topography based on data from the BEDMAP2 and ICECAP projects, toget...
