AbstractAntarctica’s ice sheet holds enough water to raise global sea levels by over 200 feet, making accurate predictions of its future behavior critical for coastal communities, infrastructure planning, and climate adaptation worldwide. However, current ice sheet models struggle to predict how fast Antarctic ice will flow and contribute to sea level rise because they lack crucial information about conditions beneath the ice, particularly the temperature at the base of the ice sheet. When the base of t
