Intense atmospheric rivers can weaken ice shelf stability at the Antarctic Peninsula
The disintegration of the ice shelves along the Antarctic Peninsula have spurred much
discussion on the various processes leading to their eventual dramatic collapse, but without …

Antarctic atmospheric river climatology and precipitation impacts
The Antarctic ice sheet (AIS) is sensitive to short‐term extreme meteorological events that
can leave long‐term impacts on the continent's surface mass balance (SMB). We investigate …

Performance of MAR (v3. 11) in simulating the drifting-snow climate and surface mass balance of Adélie Land, East Antarctica
Drifting snow, or the wind-driven transport of snow particles and their concurrent
sublimation, is a poorly documented process on the Antarctic ice sheet, inherently lacking in …
