Ocean tides trigger ice shelf rift growth and calving
Abstract Tabular iceberg calving reduces ice-shelf extent, affecting ocean circulation and ice-sheet stability. Here we present detailed observations of a rift on the Brunt Ice Shelf, East Antarctica, from 2017-2023 and its behaviour in the lead up to calving in January 2023. The timing of rift prop...
