Inverse Level-set Problems for Capturing Calving Fronts
Capturing the calving front motion is critical for simulations of ice sheets and ice shelves. Multiple physical processes - besides calving also melting and the forward movement of the ice - need to be understood to accurately model the front. Calving is particularly challenging due to its discontin...
