| Summary: | The increase in the average Earth temperature, also known as Global warming, has accelerated the retreat of Arctic sea ice cover and created large areas of open water, making new sailing routes available through Polar Regions. It is therefore important to investigate how ocean waves change when they interact with sea ice, in order to improve wave-forecasting models in ice-covered regions. Experimental and numerical tests are carried out in this thesis to evaluate wave reflection and transmission operated by ice floes. ... |
