Nearshore Seafloor Depositions and Deformations at Paleo-Glacier Active Area revealed from side scan sonar data, case study from Horseshoe Island, Western Antarctica
Abstract. The variety of geophysical imaging methods, such as shallow-acoustic profiling, multi-beam swath bathymetry, and side scan sonar, has made it possible to recognize and understand submerged glacial landforms on and below the seafloor of historically glaciated continental edges. By examining these landforms, one can learn more about the dynamics of paleo ice sheets and the processes by which ice sheets move, erode, and deposit sediment. In order to evaluate model projections of the future responses of the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets to climate change, it is equally crucial to comprehend previous rates of change. In order to accomplish this, the video ground-trothing and side scan sonar data, which are the initial dataset for the study area, were used to map the nearshore deformations and deposition features of Western Horseshoe Island, Western Antarctica. The morphological and erosional boundaries indicate that streams of melting ice have affected the seafloor, especially below 10 meters, in the recent past, forming glacial marine phases and ice-margin. Nonetheless, a limited area also revealed subglacial seafloor features, such a paleolake, and paleoshoreline morphology, suggesting the presence of a two-phase mechanism in the study area. Meltwater streams and ice flow directions in the research region generally trend southward, with the island's southernmost portion being deeper than its westernmost component.

Dear Editors
Our manuscript named "Nearshore Seafloor Depositions and Deformations at Paleo-Glacier Active Area revealed from side scan sonar data, case study from Horseshoe Island, Western Antarctica" was uploaded To Cryosphere Journal on 6th June, from that time the manuscript has been reached to appx 300 View+PDF downloads etc. But unfortunately we could not get any discussions or reviews. Appx 6 months passed. For this purpose we are decided to withdrawn thereview processes about our paper. Would you mind starting the withdrawn processess please.Best RegardsDenizhan VARDARCitation: https://doi.org/10.5194/egusphere-2024-1722-AC1
