Continental scale, high order, high spatial resolution, ice sheet modeling using the Ice Sheet System Model (ISSM)

Ice flow models used to project the mass balance of ice sheets in Greenland and Antarctica usually rely on the Shallow Ice Approximation (SIA) and the Shallow‐Shelf Approximation (SSA), sometimes combined into so‐called “hybrid” models. Such models, while computationally efficient, are based on a si... View More
