Thinning sea ice weakens buttressing force of iceberg mélange and promotes calving
Observed sea-ice loss near ice sheets has, in many cases, been accompanied by accelerated iceberg calving. Here, using a new model, the authors show that iceberg calving from glaciers can be suppressed by a mélange of sea ice and icebergs, with an increased likelihood of calving as sea ice thins.
