Regimes of Sea‐Ice Floe Melt: Ice‐Ocean Coupling at the Submesoscales
AbstractMarginal ice zones are composed of discrete sea‐ice floes, whose dynamics are not well captured by the continuum representation of sea ice in most climate models. This study makes use of an ocean large eddy simulation (LES) model, coupled to cylindrical sea‐ice floes, to investigate thermal and mechanical interactions between melt‐induced ...

The Liquidus Temperature for Methanol-Water Mixtures at High Pressure and Low Temperature, with Application to Titan [PDF]
Methanol is a potentially important impurity in subsurface oceans on Titan and Enceladus. We report measurements of the freezing of methanol-water samples at pressures up to 350~MPa using a volumetric cell with sapphire windows. For low concentrations of

Hysteretic evolution of ice rises and ice rumples in response to variations in sea level [PDF]
Ice rises and ice rumples are locally grounded features found in coastal Antarctica and are surrounded by otherwise freely floating ice shelves. An ice rise has an independent flow regime, whereas the flow regime of an ice rumple conforms to that of the ...

Rheology of Discrete Failure Regimes of Anisotropic Sea Ice [PDF]
ABSTRACT A rheological model of sea ice is presented that incorporates the orientational distribution of ice thickness in leads embedded in isotropic floe ice. Sea ice internal stress is determined by coulombic, ridging and tensile failure at orientations where corresponding failure criteria are satisfied at minimum stresses. Because sea

Influence of meteorological conditions on the formation of ice regime of the Lake Onega
The formation of the ice regime on large lakes is mostly determined by the complex meteorological processes occurring over the water area. Previous studies of the air temperature influence on the ice regime formation on the Lake Onega were based on ...

Effective viscosity of grease ice in linearized gravity waves
Grease ice is an agglomeration of disc-shaped ice crystals, named frazil ice, which forms in turbulent waters of the Polar Oceans and in rivers as well.

Vanishing river ice cover in the lower part of the Danube basin – signs of a changing climate [PDF]
Many of the world’s largest rivers in the extra tropics are covered with ice during the cold season, and in the Northern Hemisphere approximately 60% of the rivers experience significant seasonal effects of river ice.
