Influence of subglacial geology on the onset of a West Antarctic ice stream from aerogeophysical observations

Marine ice-sheet collapse can contribute to rapid sea-level rise 1 . Today, the West Antarctic Ice Sheet contains an amount of ice equivalent to approximately six metres of sea-level rise, but most of the ice is in the slowly moving interior reservoir. A relatively small fraction of the ice sheet co...
