Yes, but don't get me started on the things that are wrong in that graphic. I spent a lot of time iterating with a graphic artist recently to eliminate a number of misconceptions and gross distortions in similar schematic figures.

That’s great, and necessary, because it takes some effort to understand this icecap. Where will this be published?

Initially these are figures that will be part of an infographic on the International Thwaites Glacier Collaboration website (thwaitesglacier.org) explaining some of the methods used to study the glacier. They might subsequently appear in what we're referring to as an "accomplishments" paper.

There's another one I advised @icebird.bsky.social on that I included in commentary published in Geophysical Research Letters a couple of years ago. doi.org/10.1029/2021...
