A Predictive Theory for Heat Transport Into Ice Shelf Cavities

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
Antarctic ice shelves are losing mass at drastically different rates, primarily due to differing rates of oceanic heat supply to their bases. However, a generalized theory for the inflow of relatively warm water into ice shelf cavities is lacking.

The effect of ice shelf rheology on shelf edge bending

open access: yesThe Cryosphere
Abstract. The distribution of pressure on the vertical seaward front of an ice shelf has been shown to cause downward bending of the shelf if the ice is assumed to have vertically uniform viscosity. Satellite lidar observations show that many shelf edges bend upward and that the amplitude of upward deflections depends systematically on ice shelf ...
