文摘
- •
First modeling attempt of East Siberian ice topography under MIS 6 climate conditions.
- •
The ice shelf an extent comparable with or larger than the current Ross ice shelf in West Antarctica.
- •
The ice shelf geometry is highly sensitive to calving and basal melting parameters.
- •
The ice cap is connected to the Eurasian ice sheet as suggested by Grosswald (1999).
- •
The absence of connection with the Eurasian ice sheet does not inhibits the growth of the ice shelf.
