Short summary
Glacier melting contributes to global sea level rise, largely due to interactions between the ocean and glacier fronts. Understanding these interactions is crucial. This study explores these processes in a fjord in understudied East Greenland, using a drone to collect data near the glacier. Based on our measurements, we hypothesise that glacier meltwater refreezes in cold Polar Water, forming ice crystals that float to the surface and melt when exposed to warmer ocean temperatures.
