Many glaciers in the Antarctic Peninsula are nowrapidly losing mass. Understanding of the dynamics of thesefast-flowing glaciers, and their potential future behaviour,can be improved through ice sheet modelling studies. Inversemethods are commonly used in ice sheet models toinfer the spatial distrib...
