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 …

A laboratory experimental study conducted in a freshwater wave flume installed in a
refrigerated room characterized the modifications of wave propagation along on-site …

A physical model is discussed that mimics the interaction between ocean waves and a
multitude of loose pancake ice floes, which form the outer edge of the Arctic and Antarctic …

The interaction of waves and ice is of significant relevance for engineers, oceanographers
and climate scientists. In-situ measurements are costly and bear uncertainties due to …

This paper examines the experimental data on ice floes collisions from the HYDRALAB+
Transnational Access project: Loads on Structure and Waves in Ice (LS-WICE). The paper …

The aim of this paper is to introduce a fully nonlinear numerical finite element solver for the
simulation of nonlinear wave processes in the presence of a solid ice sheet. In this study …

Ocean waves penetrate hundreds of kilometres into the ice-covered ocean. Waves fracture
the level ice into small floes, herd floes, introduce warm water and overwash the floes …

In the winter, when the Antarctic sea ice cover is expanding, the far edge of the marginal ice
zone is populated by small floes with characteristic diameters much smaller than ocean …

The outer edge of the sea ice cover, also known as marginal ice zone (MIZ), is the area
where the interactions between ocean waves and sea ice take place. Ocean waves …

Wave characteristics change significantly when the waves propagate in a solid ice field. The
damping of the incident waves due to the presence of the ice sheet has a significant impact …
