Contemporary ice sheet thinning drives subglacial groundwater exfiltration with potential feedbacks on glacier flow

Observations indicate that groundwater-laden sedimentary aquifers are extensive beneath large portions of the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets. A reduction in the mechanical loading of aquifers is known to lead to groundwater exfiltration, a discharge of groundwater from the aquifer. Here, we prov...
