a Surface and sub-glacial topography map of the study area generated using data from Farinotti et al.90, Fürst et al.105 and Porter et al.106. Sub-glacial catchments of lakes Berglivatnet and Lakssjøen are marked with green and purple outlines, respectively. The present-day ice margin is marked with a white line after Pfeffer et al.129, while the extended ice margin from 1936 CE is marked with a white dashed line after Luncke32 and the predicted ice margin for 2100 CE for Representative Concentration Pathway (RCP) 8.5 after Rounce et al.31 is marked with a red dashed line. Major bedrock boundaries are marked with black and dashed lines after Dallman 47. Other lakes present in the wider study area are labelled with light blue (F1 – Fiskedammane 1, F3 – Fiskedammane 3).
