Modelling Antarctic ice shelf-ocean interaction at high-resolution

Understanding the processes involved in basal melting of Antarctic ice shelves is important to quantify the rate at which Antarctica will lose mass in the future. We implement a state-of-the-art ocean model to derive a new estimate of continent-wide ice shelf basal melting at 2 km horizontal resolut...
