How Does the Ocean Melt Antarctic Ice Shelves?
MG Rosevear, B Gayen, CA Vreugdenhil… - Annual Review of …, 2024 - annualreviews.org
The present-day state and future of the Antarctic Ice Sheet depend on the rate at which the
ocean melts its fringing ice shelves. Ocean heat must cross many physical and dynamical …

Melting of glacier ice enhanced by bursting air bubbles
Feedbacks between ice melt, glacier flow and ocean circulation can rapidly accelerate ice
loss at tidewater glaciers and alter projections of sea-level rise. At the core of these …

Mixing, water transformation, and melting close to a tidewater glacier
Marine‐terminating glacier fjords play a central role in the transport of oceanic heat toward
ice sheets, regulating their melt. Mixing processes near glacial termini are key to this …
