Fine-scale ocean processes driving the basal melting of Antarctic ice shelves
The Antarctic Ice Sheet, which comprises the largest volume of ice on our planet, is losing mass due to ocean-driven melting of its fringing ice shelves. Efforts to represent basal melting in sea level projections are undermined by poor understanding of the turbulent ice shelf-ocean boundary layer (...
