A vertically integrated model with phase change for aquifers in cold firn
Mohammad Afzal Shadab, Howard A. Stone, Reed M. Maxwell
Surface meltwater from glaciers and ice sheets contributes significantly to sea-level rise, yet the processes governing its transport and retention within cold firn remain poorly c…

A unified kinematic wave theory for melt infiltration into firn
Mohammad Afzal Shadab, Anja Rutishauser, Cyril Grima +1
Motivated by the refreezing of melt water in firn we revisit the one-dimensional percolation of liquid water and non-reactive gas in porous ice. We analyze the dynamics of infiltra…
