The role of double-diffusive convection in basal melting of Antarctic ice shelves

Madelaine Gamble Rosevear et al.

Summary: The study highlights the importance of double-diffusive convection in controlling ice shelf melt rates and oceanic mixed layer properties in warm and low-velocity cavity environments beneath ice shelves. The findings suggest that current ice-ocean parameterizations underestimate melt rates by neglecting the role of double-diffusive convection, which is identified as a primary process in the oceanic melting of ice shelves.

Shear, Stability, and Mixing within the Ice Shelf-Ocean Boundary Current

Adrian Jenkins

Summary: Melting of the inclined base of an ice shelf into the ocean induces stable stratification and a buoyancy-forced sheared flow. A numerical model was used to study the relationship between shear, stability, and mixing, revealing that the boundary current development goes through different phases, eventually generating a relatively well-mixed turbulent layer.

Reinvestigating the Parabolic-Shaped Eddy Viscosity Profile for Free Surface Flows

Rafik Absi

Summary: The study presents two analytical eddy viscosity models based on concepts of velocity and length scales, which show good agreement with experimental data when computing velocity profiles. The models are similar to the log-wake-modified eddy viscosity profile with added correction functions related to turbulence near the free surface, while differences lie in the values of the Coles' parameter.

Integrating CVMix into GOTM (v6.0): a consistent framework for testing, comparing, and applying ocean mixing schemes

Qing Li et al.

Summary: The General Ocean Turbulence Model (GOTM) is extended to include newly developed ocean surface vertical mixing parameterizations via coupling with the Community Vertical Mixing Project (CVMix). A Stokes drift module is also implemented to provide ocean surface waves information to the Langmuir turbulence parameterizations. Additionally, a streamlined workflow with Python and Jupyter notebooks is described, enabled by the newly developed and more flexible configuration capability of GOTM.
