Abstract

Numerical simulation is performed to investigate the effect of ambient stratification on a vertical ice face dissolving into cold and saline water. The three coupled interface equations are used, along with the Boussinesq and non-hydrostatic governing equations of motion and equation of state for seawater, to solve for interface temperature, salinity and melt rate. The main focus is on the rate of dissolving of ice at ambient water temperatures between 0° C and 4°C and salinity around 35 psu and the dependence on stratification (as characterizes many sites around Antarctica).
