Extended Data Fig. 7: Examples of maximum surface meltwater extent throughout our study period.
From: Continent-wide mapping shows increasing sensitivity of East Antarctica to meltwater ponding
Maximum extent composites of surface meltwater (red) between 2006 – 2021 for Cabinet Inlet, Larsen C (a), Nansen Ice Shelf (b) and George VI Ice Shelf (c). The background image in each example is the Landsat Mosaic Image of Antarctica (LIMA). Note how there are no obvious examples of rock, or rock shadow, being misclassifed as surface meltwater.
