Flow velocity and along-flow stress products for Larsen C Ice Shelf, Antarctica, modelled before and after the calving event of Iceberg A68 in July 2017
Velocity and along-flow stress states were modelled for Larsen C ice shelf, before and after the calving of iceberg A68 in July 2017. The archive contains two sets of model outputs: i) flow velocity before and after calving, and the difference between these periods, and ii) along-flow stress before and calving, and the difference between these periods. The models are produced with the BISICLES ice sheet model. Additionally to high-resolution geo-referenced model outputs, a low-resolution image of each is provided for reference. The maps were produced by Dr Stephen Cornford, Swansea University.
The data is part of the NERC RACE project, NE/R012334/1.

- Statement
-
Methodology:
Data was modelled using BISICLES, using inputs derived from: the Sentinel-1 velocity maps from satellite feature tracking, performed as part of the RACE project (NE/R012334/1); Bedmap2 (Fretwell et al, 2013) ice thickness & bed elevation.
The velocity/stress maps indicate the precursor velocity and stress states prior to the acquisition of seismic and radar datasets, and satellite feature tracking, performed as part of the RACE project (NE/R012334/1).
Data collection:
Data was modelled using BISICLES.
Inputs derived from the Sentinel-1 velocity maps from satellite feature tracking.
Bedmap2 (Fretwell et al, 2013) ice thickness & bed elevation.
Data quality:
Model mesh resolution varies but is typically 1km.
