Tidewater glacier calving provides the most direct mechanism of ice transfer from land to the
ocean. However, the physical melt processes influencing calving remain challenging to constrain. In this
study we focus on calving rates at Kongsbreen, a tidewater glacier in Svalbard, due to three mechanisms of
submarine melt: (1) free convection, (2) horizontal fjord circulation, and (3) meltwater ...
