Comment on A Coupled Dynamic-Thermodynamic Model of an Ice-Ocean System in the Marginal Ice Zone

The recent article by Hakkinen [1987] creatively addresses a number of important dynamic and thermodynamic processes in the marginal ice zone (MIZ). We believe that her study will stimulate further research on the coupled ice-ocean system. For now we would like to offer the following discussion of t...

Description
Summary:The recent article by Hakkinen [1987] creatively addresses a number of important dynamic and thermodynamic processes in the marginal ice zone (MIZ). We believe that her study will stimulate further research on the coupled ice-ocean system. For now we would like to offer the following discussion of the need to augment the entrainment equation to include surface buoyancy flux for general application to the MIZ. Pub. in Journal of Geophysical Research, v93 n.C5, p5155-5156, 15 May 1988.
