Ice flow dynamics and mass loss of Totten Glacier, East Antarctica, from 1989 to 2015

Totten Glacier has the largest ice discharge in East Antarctica and a basin grounded mostly below sea level. Satellite altimetry data have revealed ice thinning in areas of fast flow. Here we present a time series of ice velocity measurements spanning from 1989 to 2015 using Landsat and interferomet...
