THICKNESS EVOLUTION ►initial condition is slab of ice 850m thick resting on flat bedrock at -750m

Figure 2. Results after 100kyr in the standard experiment. The three panels show ice thickness (upper panel in m), downstream velocity (middle panel in m yr -1 ) and the ratio of basal traction to gravitational driving stress (lower panel).
