This dataset contains limits to the inland diffusion of terminus-initiated thinning along 141 Greenland Ice Sheet outlet glaciers. The data is separated in 187 netcdf files, which represent individual outlet glaciers as well as individual branches of glaciers. Files are named glacier XXXX.nc where XXXX is the identifier for an individual glacier or branch. Identifiers that begin with a letter ('a', 'b', 'c', or 'd') represent a branch of an outlet glacier. Each file contains geometry, dynamic thinning, Peclet number Example code that can be used to read and plot the data can be found here: https://github.com/dfelikson/GrIS-thinning-limits-and-knickpoints.
