Predicting mean depth and area fraction of Antarctic supraglacial melt lakes with physics-based parameterizations

Abstract Despite the importance of supraglacial melt lakes to the future evolution of polar ice sheets, they are not represented in current large-scale climate and ice sheet models. In this study, we use ICESat-2 satellite surface elevation measurements to show that roughness on the Antarctic Ice Sh...
