Modelling the impact of submarine frontal melting and ice mélange on glacier dynamics
International audience Submarine melting of the calving face of tidewa-ter glaciers and the mechanical back force applied by the ice mélange layer are two mechanisms generally proposed to explain seasonal variations at the calving front of tide-water glaciers. However, the way these processes affect...
