Bendocapillary Instability of Liquid in a Flexible-Walled Channel
Alexander T. Bradley, Ian J. Hewitt, Dominic Vella
We study the bendocapillary instability of a liquid droplet that part fills a flexible walled channel. Inspired by experiments in which a `weaving' pattern emerges as droplets of l…
Turbulent Convection in Subglacial Lakes
Louis-Alexandre Couston
Subglacial lakes are isolated, cold-temperature and high-pressure water environments hidden under ice sheets, which might host extreme microorganisms. Here, we use two-dimensional…
Asymptotic Analysis of Subglacial Plumes in Stratified Environments
Alexander T Bradley, C. Rosie Williams, Adrian Jenkins +1
Accurate predictions of basal melt rates on ice shelves are necessary for precise projections of the future behaviour of ice sheets. The computational expense associated with compl…
Dynamic flows create potentially habitable conditions in Antarctic subglacial lakes
Louis-Alexandre Couston, Martin Siegert
Trapped beneath the Antarctic ice sheet lie over 400 subglacial lakes, which are considered to be extreme, isolated, yet viable habitats for microbial life. The physical conditions…
Aspect ratio affects iceberg melting
Eric W. Hester, Craig D. McConnochie, Claudia Cenedese +2
Iceberg meltwater is a critical freshwater flux from the cryosphere to the oceans. Global climate simulations therefore require simple and accurate parameterisations of iceberg mel…
Topography generation by melting and freezing in a turbulent shear flow
Louis-Alexandre Couston, Eric Hester, Benjamin Favier +3
We report an idealized numerical study of a melting and freezing solid adjacent to a turbulent, buoyancy-affected shear flow, in order to improve our understanding of topography ge…
