Figure 1

Schematic of the ice surface, ice bottom elevation, sea floor depth, and vertical tidal motion of the ice in the grounding zone versus a differential SAR interferogram on top. The grounding line (GL), represented by the vertical gray dashed line, is at the inner-most fringe of the grounded ice side. The differential motion in the tidal flexing zone produces a dense fringe pattern used by the neural network to identify grounding lines. The direction of horizontal migration of the GL is shown by the double-sided dark blue arrow.
