calculate the net mass balance of the ice sheet and determine how that net balance is distributed between the grounded and floating portions of the ice sheet;
Although glaciologists have been aware there is a network of ice streams flowing through the West Antarctic Ice Sheet, scientists previously believed that the East Antarctic Ice Sheet was locked into place atop the continent's bedrock,
that sustained global warming above these temperatures would eliminate the ice sheet.
