‘CELTIC BRITAIN’ IN PRE‐ROMAN ARCHAEOLOGY, RECONSIDERED

Spatial and Temporal Variability in Tide‐Induced Icequake Activity at the Astrolabe Coastal Glacier, East Antarctica

Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 130, Issue 8, August 2025.
Abstract The grounding zones (GZ) of marine‐terminating glaciers, where ice transitions from grounded to floating, experience strong mechanical changes in response to ocean tides. The spatial and temporal dynamics of these changes remain poorly documented, as they require multi‐scale observations capable of resolving internal ice deformation.
