Hydraulic suppression of basal glacier melt in sill fjords
We examine how hydraulically-controlled exchange flows in silled fjords affect the relationship between basal glacier melt and features of warm intermediate Atlantic Water (AW) outside the fjords. Using theory and an ocean-circulation model, we show that an exchange flow can be forced to transit int...
