title: Review Article: The Foundation-Patuxent-Academy ice stream system, Antarctica
abstract: Abstract. The Foundation-Patuxent-Academy system (FPAS) is a major Antarctic ice stream system with a global sea level potential of ~3 m. Draining both East and West Antarctica, the FPAS has been understudied compared with other major Antarctic ice streams. We provide a holistic catchment-scale overview of the FPAS reviewing its glaciological and hydrological systems, its glacial history, and its modelled response to past and future climate change. FPAS may be vulnerable to future change because
