Global mapping of lake-terminating glaciers
Abstract. Proglacial lakes at glacier termini have received widespread attention in the literature for their role in accelerating melt, velocity and contributing to cryospheric hazards. Although globa...

IGS Global Seminar: Ralf Greve | February 18
Topic: Basal sliding laws and flow laws for ice-sheet and glacier modelling, and why their non-dimensionalization can make modellers' lives easier
Join me at the @igsoc.bsky.social Global Seminar βοΈ on Feb 18 (20:00 UTC). I'll be talking about basal sliding laws, flow laws, and how their non-dimensionalization simplifies #Glacier and #IceSheet #Modelling. ππ§
