Subglacial discharge controls seasonal variations in the thermal structure of a glacial lake in Patagonia

Thermal conditions and circulation near glacier fronts are important to understand the recent rapid retreat of calving glaciers. New observations from a glacial lake suggesting a feedback mechanism between atmospheric warming, glacier front melting and calving for freshwater-terminating glaciers.
