Antarctic bed elevation product specifications
- Domain: - continent and the continental shelf - also below ice shelf
- Grid: - regular grid, resolution (5/10 km)
- Projection: - conformal with minimum area distortion (WGS84 datum)
- Related data: - ice thickness grid (grounded ice sheet and ice shelves) - surface elevation
- Smoothness: - no strong slope breaks - no high nunataks
- Consistency: - ice thickness = surface elevation - bed elevation - inclusion of watercolumn beneath marine ice shelves - grounding line position from flotation condition
- Masks: - grounding line - coastline (shelf edge)
- Format: - data array - transformation parameters (i,j) to (?, ?)
