Modeling the response of northwest Greenland to enhanced ocean thermal forcing and subglacial discharge

<p>Calving-front dynamics is an important control on Greenland's ice mass balance. Ice front retreat of marine-terminating glaciers may, for example, lead to a loss in resistive stress, which ultimately results in glacier acceleration and thinning. Over the past decade, it has been sugges...
