Project - A benchmark surface melt product for the Antarctic ice sheet
Summary
The Antarctic ice sheet has lost a number of large floating ice shelves in recent decades, increasing ice discharge into the ocean. As meltwater likely played an important role in shelf collapse, we will use radar and optical satellite techniques to improve estimates of current and future melt in Antarctica.
