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.

New Research Finds Sea Ice Can Control Antarctic Ice Sheet Stability
Despite the rapid melting of ice in many parts of Antarctica during the second half of the 20th century, researchers have found that the floating ice shelves which skirt the eastern Antarctic Peninsula have undergone sustained advance over the past 20 years.
