February 18, 1975: Image taken by the Multispectral Scanner onboard Landsat 2. (NASA Earth Observatory) , Exfiltration or infiltration of groundwater occurs due to unloading or loading of ice sheets over saturated subglacial sediment half-space. At the ice-sediment interface, z = 0 and z increases down into sediment. (Robel et al)

Thinning Ice Sheets May Drive Sharp Rise in Subglacial Waters

<>
Up to twice the amount of subglacial water that was originally predicted might be draining into the ocean – potentially increasing glacial melt, sea level rise, and biological disturbances.
