Abstract: The determination of baroclinic coastal-trapped wave modes reduces to an eigenvalue problem quadratic in the eigenvalue if the long-wave assumption is not made. This problem can be expressed as a linear eigenvalue problem ...

Abstract: A coupled sea-ice?ocean numerical model is used to study the impact of an ill-resolved subgrid-scale sea-ice?ocean dynamical process on the areal coverage of the sea-ice field. The process of interest is the transmission ...

Abstract: hen glaciers calve icebergs, a fraction of the released potential energy is radiated away via gravity waves. The characteristics of such waves, caused by iceberg calving on Helheim Glacier in east Greenland, are investigated. ...

Abstract: Much of the Antarctic coastline comprises large, floating ice shelves, beneath which waters from the open ocean circulate. The interaction of the seawater with the base of these ice shelves has a bearing both on the rate ...

Abstract: Models of ocean circulation beneath ice shelves are driven primarily by the heat and freshwater fluxes that are associated with phase changes at the ice?ocean boundary. Their behavior is therefore closely linked to the ...

Abstract: Landfast ice is sea ice that forms and remains fixed along a coast, where it is either attached to the shore or held between shoals or grounded icebergs. The current generation of sea ice models is not capable of reproducing ...

Abstract: he interaction between an Antarctic Circumpolar Current?like channel flow and a continental shelf break is considered using eddy-permitting simulations of a quasigeostrophic and a primitive equation model. The experimental ...

Abstract: A three-dimensional ocean general circulation model is used to study the response of idealized ice shelves to a series of ocean-warming scenarios. The model predicts that the total ice shelf basal melt increases quadratically ...

Abstract: akobshavn Glacier, west Greenland, has responded to temperature changes in Ilulissat Icefjord, into which it terminates. Basin waters in this fjord exchange with neighboring Disko Bay waters of a particular density at least ...

Abstract: he circumpolar transport of a wind-driven quasigeostrophic Antarctic Circumpolar Current is considered. Simple theory suggests transport in a strongly forced regime?the focus of this study?is largely determined by a ...
