2021-5-31 · 1 Introduction. GHF is a crucial and poorly constrained parameter for ice sheet modeling and hence glacial isostatic adjustment calculations. It affects the ice rheology and can lead to basal melting thereby promoting ice flow (e.g. Larour et al. 2012 Pittard et al. 2016 Winsborrow et al. 2010).A difference of 20 mW/m 2 can already increase the basal melt rate from 6.7 to 18 km 3 /yr
