Abstract
- International audience; The Antarctic ice sheet (AIS) is classified as a polar desert where, similar to other deserts around the world, the annual precipitation is dependent on a few episodic precipitation events. Recent research has highlighted that certain regions of the AIS receive 40%-60% of their total annual precipitation from the largest 10% of daily precipitation events (Turner et al., 2019). There is a high coast-inland snowfall gradient, as most
