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…

The Science Case for a Titan Flagship-class Orbiter with Probes

Conor A. Nixon, James Abshire, Andrew Ashton +36

We outline a flagship-class mission concept focused on studying Titan as a global system, with particular emphasis on the polar regions. Investigating Titan from the unique standpo…

Improved phase-field models of melting and dissolution in multi-component flows

Eric W. Hester, Louis-Alexandre Couston, Benjamin Favier +2

We develop and analyse the first second-order phase-field model to combine melting and dissolution in multi-component flows. This provides a simple and accurate way to simulate cha…

Landslide Tsunamis in Lakes

Louis-Alexandre Couston, Chiang C Mei, Mohammad-Reza Alam

Landslides plunging into lakes and reservoirs can result in extreme wave runup at shores. This phenomenon has claimed lives and caused damage to near-shore properties. Landslide ts…

Fabry-Perot resonance of water waves

Louis-Alexandre Couston, Qiuchen Guo, Maysamreza Chamanzar +1

We show that significant water wave amplification is obtained in a water resonator consisting of two spatially separated patches of small-amplitude sinusoidal corrugations on an ot…

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…
