Sensitivity of the dynamics of Pine Island Glacier, West Antarctica, to climate forcing for the next 50 years
Pine Island Glacier, a major contributor to sea level rise in West Antarctica, has been undergoing significant changes over the last few decades. Here, we employ a three-dimensional, higher-order model to simulate its evolution over the next 50 yr in response to changes in its surface mass balance,...
