Summary: | 19 Abstract (continue on reverse if necessary and identtfy bv block number) U. S. Naval operations in the Arctic require an effective way to predict the movement and behavior of sea ice. This is currently provided by the Navy's PIPS model which is based on Hibler's (1979) sea ice model which combines the thermodynamic ice heat budget with a dynamic ice model sensitive to the effects of ice thickness and ice strength. The PIPS model simultaneously solves a system of four equations of ice momentum balance, ice rheology, ice thickness, and ice |
