A two dimensional coupled ice-ocean model of the Bering Sea

A two-dimensional coupled ice-ocean model has been formulated and applied to the wintertime Bering Sea marginal ice zone. The oceanic component is a multilevel model that incorporates second-moment closure for turbulent mixing in the water column. The ice cover is modeled as a viscous-plastic contin...
