Granular effects in sea ice rheology in the marginal ice zone [PDF]

open access: yesPhilosophical Transactions Series A, Mathematical, Physical, and Engineering Sciences, 2022
Sea ice in the marginal ice zone (MIZ) consists of relatively small floes with a wide size span. In response to oceanic and atmospheric forcing, it behaves as an approximately two-dimensional, highly polydisperse granular material. The established viscous-plastic rheologies used in continuum sea ice models are not suitable for the ...

Rheology of Commercial and Model Ice Creams

open access: yesApplied Rheology, 2008
The rheologies of a shear-frozen commercial ice cream and of a model ice cream foam have been studied at − 5ºC and other temperatures by capillary rheometry on a commercial manufacturing line and in a Multi-Pass Rheometer, respectively. Both were 50 vol%

Dynamics of ice mass deformation: Linking processes to rheology, texture, and microstructure

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2013
Prediction of glacier and polar ice sheet dynamics is a major challenge, especially in view of changing climate. The flow behavior of an ice mass is fundamentally linked to processes at the grain and subgrain scale.

Drivers of Pine Island Glacier speed-up between 1996 and 2016 [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2021
Pine Island Glacier in West Antarctica is among the fastest changing glaciers worldwide. Over the last 2 decades, the glacier has lost in excess of a trillion tons of ice, or the equivalent of 3 mm of sea level rise.

On the nonlinear viscosity of the orthotropic bulk rheology

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 2022
We compare different ways the bulk flow nonlinearity of glacier ice can be captured in an orthotropic rheology. Specifically, we compare the unapproximated orthotropic rheology, derived from plastic potential theory, to existing approximations that ...

Large-scale englacial folding and deep-ice stratigraphy within the West Antarctic Ice Sheet [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2020
It has been hypothesized that complex englacial structures identified within the East Antarctic and Greenland ice sheets are generated by (i) water freezing to the ice sheet base and evolving under ice flow, (ii) deformation of ice of varying rheology ...

Presentation and evaluation of the Arctic sea ice forecasting system neXtSIM-F [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2021
The neXtSIM-F (neXtSIM forecast) forecasting system consists of a stand-alone sea ice model, neXtSIM (neXt-generation Sea Ice Model), forced by the TOPAZ ocean forecast and the ECMWF atmospheric forecast, combined with daily data assimilation of sea ice ...

Impact of rheology on probabilistic forecasts of sea ice trajectories: application for search and rescue operations in the Arctic [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2018
We present a sensitivity analysis and discuss the probabilistic forecast capabilities of the novel sea ice model neXtSIM used in hindcast mode. The study pertains to the response of the model to the uncertainty on winds using probabilistic forecasts ...

A new approach to inferring basal drag and ice rheology in ice streams, with applications to West Antarctic Ice Streams

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 2021
Drag at the bed and along the lateral margins are the primary forces resisting flow in outlet glaciers. Simultaneously inferring these parameters is challenging since basal drag and ice viscosity are coupled in the momentum balance, which governs ice ...

Variational inference of ice shelf rheology with physics-informed machine learning

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 2023
Floating ice shelves that fringe the coast of Antarctica resist the flow of grounded ice into the ocean. One of the key factors governing the amount of flow resistance an ice shelf provides is the rigidity (related to viscosity) of the ice that ...
