Description
Summary:This repository contains the data supplemented to {PUBLICATION} based on Mark Elbertsen's MSc project in which he performed depth-integrated Lagrangian iceberg tracing around Antarctica during the late Eocene using high-resolution ocean model data. Using the OceanParcels framework, iceberg melting (or growth) was simulated using several kernels, including for the dominant iceberg melt terms: basal melt, buoyant convection and wave erosion. By defining kernels for five different order-of-magnitude iceberg size classes, the model was be used to determine the minimum iceberg size required for icebergs to survive the late Eocene warmth. The model output of these simulations can be found here. This research is funded by ERC Starting Grant 802835 (OceaNice) to Peter K. Bijl. ...
