Observed vulnerability of Filchner-Ronne Ice Shelf to wind-driven inflow of warm deep water
Recent modelling studies have indicated that the Filchner-Ronne Ice Shelf in Antarctica might be susceptible to the influx of warmer waters, yet observations evidence is lacking. Here, the authors present observations from the ice shelf, and show that warm water pulses already bathe the shelf.
