icepack

Glacier flow modeling from a GeoJSON outline is automated by running the end-to-end icepack workflow, which handles data preparation, meshing, interpolation, and solver execution to produce velocity and thickness time series.

Yes, diagnostic and prognostic FEM solves for ice shelves are supported in a single workflow, allowing you to compute steady-state velocities and then project glacier thickness changes over time.

To reproduce an ice stream modeling experiment, you need a GeoJSON glacier outline and forcing data, which the workflow uses to parameterize the model and apply consistent data pipelines for baseline comparisons.

Yes, the icepack workflow includes built-in validation during post-processing, ensuring that the generated velocity and thickness time series can be directly compared with observational data for accuracy.

The best way to generate a mesh for glacier FEM simulation is using the workflow's integrated meshing step, which automatically converts GeoJSON outline data into a suitable finite element mesh for solving.

A portable package for glacier modeling replaces manual FEM data pipelines by packaging meshing, interpolation, and solving into a single machine-readable format, ensuring reproducible research across different glacier experiments.
