This project focuses on characterizing the subglacial environment beneath ice sheets in Greenland and Antarctica. It aims to improve ice sheet models by analyzing the roughness of glacier beds using radar technology.
The subglacial environment beneath the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets is one of the physically least well characterised environments on Earth.
Ice sheet model simulations demonstrate high sensitivity to their basal sliding parameterisation which is governed by basal roughness, the thermal state of the bed, and lithology (presence or absence or deformable sediments).
Compiling observations of the current state of the glacier bed is therefore crucial for the accuracy of ice sheet modelling and…
