This dataset contains observed and modeled conditions along the Crane Glacier centerline for ~1994—2100. Observations include centerline (cl) coordinates, downscaled RACMO climate variables (runoff, snowfall, snowmelt, and surface mass balance), bed elevations (b), surface elevations (h), glacier width (W), calving front positions (xcf), and surface speeds (U) when available for the 1994—2019 period. Modeling results include glacier centerline geometry, speed, glacier mass discharge (Q_gl), and calving front and grounding line positions (x_cf and x_gl) under different future climate scenarios with varying surface mass balance (SMB), ocean thermal forcing (FT), SMB with potential feedbacks associated with enhanced surface melt water discharge and plume strengthening (SMB_enh), and concurrent SMB_enh and FT perturbations (SMB_enh_FT).

The International Collaborative Exploration of the Cryosphere though Airborne Profiling (ICECAP) collected five seasons of aerogeophysical data data through the NSFs International Polar Year and NASAs Operation Ice Bridge programs in East Antarctica, using the coherent HiCARS 60 MHz radar system. By comparing echo strengths for different focusing apertures, and accounting for the ranges and angles involved, we can derive the "specularity content" of the bed echo, a proxy for small scale bed roughness and a good indicator for subglacial water pressure in regions of distributed subglacial water (Schroeder et al., 2014, IEEE GRSL, 10.1109/LGRS.2014.2337878; IEEE; Dow et al., 2019, EPSL https://doi.org/10.1016/j.epsl.2019.115961).

This data set contains line-based radar-derived ice thickness and bed elevation data, collected as part of the Airborne Geophysical Survey of the Amundsen Embayment (AGASEA) expedition, which took place over Thwaites Glacier in West Antarctica from 2004 to 2005.
