Simulated past and future ice geometry of Cook Glacier, East Antarctica

Input and results files for the ice dynamics model Ua simulating potential past and future ice geometry of Cook Glacier, East Antarctica. Results seek to explain potential causes of recent observed acceleration and speculate on future causes of acceleration.

This work was funded by NERC grant NE/R000719/1.
