Observations of submesoscale eddy-driven heat transport at an ice shelf calving front

At the calving front of Nansen Ice Shelf, Antarctica a 10-km wide eddy dominated the local circulation in austral summer 2018/19 and led to substantial vertical heat transport, according to rare observations with an autonomous glider and microstructure turbulence measurements.
