High Resolution Simulation of Dissolution Process under Sloping Ice-shelves in Saline Water

Direct Numerical Simulation is performed to study the dissolution/melting process of sloping ice-shelves at fixed ambient salinity and temperature. A series of numerical simulations are carried out over various inclinations of the ice block with the horizontal direction. Both laminar and turbulent f...
