Strong Tides, Vanishing Lakes May Prove Beneficial to Antarctic Ice Shelf
Satellites have helped show that strong tidal activity may facilitate water-induced fracturing, or hydrofracturing, where land ice transitions to floating ice shelf and cause the meltwater lake to drain quickly, often in as little as several days.
