Melt rates in the kilometer-size grounding zone of Petermann Glacier, Greenland, before and during a retreat

Warming of the ocean waters surrounding Greenland plays a major role in driving glacier retreat and the contribution of glaciers to sea level rise. The melt rate at the junction of the ocean with grounded ice-or grounding line-is, however, not well known. Here, we employ a time series of satellite r...
