Moulin density controls the timing of peak pressurization within the Greenland Ice Sheet's subglacial drainage system
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Links between hydrology and sliding of the Greenland Ice Sheet (GrIS) are poorly understood. Here, we monitored meltwater’s propagation through the entire glacial hydrologic system for catchments at different elevations by quantifying the lag cascade as daily meltwater pulses traveled through the supraglacial, englacial, and subglacial drainage systems. We found that meltwater’s residence time within supraglacial catchments-depending upon area, snow cover, and degree of channelization-controls the timing of peak moulin head, resulting in the two hour later peak observed at higher-elevations. Unlike at lower elevations where peak moulin head and sliding coincided, at higher elevations peak sliding lagged moulin head by ~2.8 hours. This delay was likely caused by the area’s lower moulin density, which required diurnal pressure oscillations to migrate further away from subglacial conduits to elicit the observed velocity response. These observations highlight the supraglacial drainage system’s control on coupling GrIS hydrology and sliding.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
