Periodic outburst floods from an ice-dammed lake in East Greenland
We report evidence of four cycles of outburst floods from Catalina Lake, an ice-dammed lake in East Greenland, identified in satellite imagery between 1966–2016. The lake measures 20–25 km(2), and lake level drops 130–150 m in each event, corresponding to a water volume of 2.6–3.4 Gt, and a release...
