Acceleration of Jakobshavn Isbræ triggered by warm subsurface ocean waters
TL;DR: In this paper, hydrographic data show a concurrent sudden increase in subsurface ocean temperatures along the entire west coast of Greenland, suggesting that the changes in Jakobshavn Isbrae were triggered by the arrival of relatively warm water originating from the Irminger Sea near Iceland.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modeling Thermodynamic Ice–Ocean Interactions at the Base of an Ice Shelf
David M. Holland,Adrian Jenkins +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a hierarchy of formulations that could be used to describe the interaction between ice and ocean is presented, with the main difference between them being the treatment of turbulent transfer within the oceanic boundary layer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modelling Circumpolar Deep Water intrusions on the Amundsen Sea continental shelf, Antarctica
TL;DR: In this paper, an isopycnic coordinate model of ocean circulation in the Amundsen Sea, focusing on the delivery of Circumpolar Deep Water (CDW) to the inner continental shelf around Pine Island Bay, is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Response of Ice Shelf Basal Melting to Variations in Ocean Temperature
TL;DR: In this article, a three-dimensional ocean general circulation model is used to study the response of idealized ice shelves to a series of ocean-warming scenarios, and the model predicts that the total ice shelf basal melt increases quadratically as the ocean offshore of the ice front warms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impacts of the north and tropical Atlantic Ocean on the Antarctic Peninsula and sea ice
TL;DR: It is suggested that the north and tropical Atlantic is important for projections of future climate change in Antarctica, and has the potential to affect the global thermohaline circulation and sea-level change.
