Abatement of Ocean-Wave Impact by Crevasses in an Ice Shelf
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021 Forced ice-shelf oscillations modeling was undertaken employing a full 3D finite-difference model of an elastic ice shelf that was coupled to a treatment of under-shelf seawater flux.

Ice-shelf damming in the glacial Arctic Ocean: dynamical regimes of a basin-covering kilometre-thick ice shelf [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2017 Recent geological and geophysical data suggest that a 1 km thick ice shelf extended over the glacial Arctic Ocean during Marine Isotope Stage 6, about 140 000 years ago.

Time-Dependent Modelling of the Wave-Induced Vibration of Ice Shelves
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023 This work presents an investigation of ice shelf vibration using a model based on shallow water approximation. The study focused on the effect of changes in the draft on the vibration of the ice shelf and presents both time-domain and frequency-domain ...

Southern Weddell Sea surface freshwater flux modulated by icescape and atmospheric forcing [PDF]
Ocean Science, 2023 Sea ice formation dominates surface salt forcing in the southern Weddell Sea. Brine rejected in the process of sea ice production results in the production of High Salinity Shelf Water (HSSW) that feeds the global overturning circulation and fuels the ...

Environmental Research Letters, 2021 Recent observations indicate that two cryospheric components, namely the Antarctic sea ice and ice shelf over the Southern Ocean, have been changing over the decades. Here we analyze results from an ocean–sea ice–ice shelf model to examine variability in

Impact of Subglacial Freshwater Discharge on Pine Island Ice Shelf
Geophysical Research Letters, 2021 Satellite‐based estimates of ice shelf melt rates reach ∼ 200 m yr−1 close to the grounding line of Pine Island Glacier, in West Antarctica. However, ocean simulations have not yet been able to reproduce such high melt rates, even with high‐resolution ...

The Cryosphere, 2021 . Ice shelf instability is one of the main sources of uncertainty in Antarctica's contribution to future sea level rise. Calving events play a crucial role in ice shelf weakening but remain unpredictable, and their governing processes are still poorly ...

Ross ice shelf vibrations [PDF]
Geophysical Research Letters, 2015 AbstractBroadband seismic stations were deployed across the Ross Ice Shelf (RIS) in November 2014 to study ocean gravity wave‐induced vibrations. Initial data from three stations 100 km from the RIS front and within 10 km of each other show both dispersed infragravity (IG) wave and ocean swell‐generated signals resulting from waves that originate in ...

A geomorphological overview of glacial landforms on the Icelandic continental shelf [PDF]
, 2009 The availability of a bathymetric database that covers about 80% of the Icelandic shelf has made it possible to produce a geomorphological map of the glacial landforms.

Antarctic ice sheet response to sudden and sustained ice-shelf collapse (ABUMIP)
Journal of Glaciology, 2020 Antarctica's ice shelves modulate the grounded ice flow, and weakening of ice shelves due to climate forcing will decrease their ‘buttressing’ effect, causing a response in the grounded ice.
