| Abstract | Continental-scale ice sheets in the polar regions (i.e., Antarctica and Greenland) hold 99 percent of the fresh water on Earth. These ice sheets are prone to undergoing fast changes in a shifting climate and may contribute significantly to future sea level rise. The physical properties of the ice sheets contain important information that can aid understanding of ice sheet dynamics (why they move) and provide hints on how ice sheets themselves respond to the changing climate. Therefore, making co |
