Background

Understanding the Dynamics dynamics of large ice sheets (like Greenland and Antarctica) are is crucial to projections of future sea level rise. The dynamics of ice sheets span a wide range of scales. There are localized regions (like grounding lines and ice streams) where very fine spatial resolution (better than 1 km) is needed to accurately resolve the dynamics. At the same time, there are large regions (much of the interior of Antarctica, for example) where such fine resolution is unnecessary and represents a waste of computational resources.  This makes it a prime candidate for adaptive mesh refinement.
