Ice shelf – ocean boundary interaction
Thermodynamic ablation of ice in contact with the ocean remains poorly understood. Consequently the main topic of this thesis is the interplay between the ice shelf-ocean boundary and the mechanisms driving ice shelf ablation. The rate of ablation is determined by the temperature, salinity and speed...
