Actively evolving subglacial conduits and eskers initiate ice shelf channels at an Antarctic grounding line

Ice-shelf channels are long curvilinear tracts of thin ice found on Antarctic ice shelves. Many of them originate near the grounding line, but their formation mechanisms remain poorly understood.
