SUMMARY:Modelling seasonal acceleration of land terminating sectors of the
  Greenland Ice Sheet margin - Conrad Koziol\, University of Edinburgh
DTSTART:20180214T163000Z

CONTACT:Ian Willis
DESCRIPTION:Surface runoff during the summer melt season drains to the ice
 -bed interface of the Greenland Ice Sheet\, leading to seasonal accelerati
 on of land terminating sections of the margin. Understanding the processes
  driving this phenomena are important for predicting the dynamic response 
 of the ice sheet to increasing summer melt season intensity. Land-terminat
 ing sectors also provide a useful environment for testing models of subgla
 cial hydrology\, before applying such models to the more complex marine-te
 rminating sectors. This talk will cover efforts to model seasonal accelera
 tion of land-terminating sectors of the Greenland Ice Sheet margin using a
  multicomponent model\, consisting of supraglacial hydrology\, subglacial 
 hydrology\, and ice dynamic components. \n
