Ice-Ocean Interactions Part 1: Sea ice in the Arctic
Panelist: Dr. Geli Renner (This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.)
Dr. Angelika Renner from the Norwegian Polar Institute provided an overview of sea ice-ocean interactions, with a focus on sea ice in the Arctic. Following the presentation of introductory/background information, she presented the methodology and results for her recent research on turbulent heat flux between Arctic sea ice and the underlying upper ocean layer. -
Ice-Ocean Interactions Part 2: Marine-terminating Glaciers
Panelist: Dr. Gordon Hamilton (This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.)
Dr. Gordon Hamilton from the University of Maine provided background on recent changes in marine-terminating glacier behavior and potentional ocean triggering mechanisms. The presentation focused on research performed at the margins of the Greenland Ice Sheet, where the majority of the research on glacier ice-ocean interactions has been executed and where Dr. Hamilton has conducted a suite of research projects. -
Ice-Ocean Interactions Part 3: Glacial fjord circulation
Panelist: Dave Sutherland (This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.)
Dr. David Sutherland from the University of Oregon provided an overview of ice-ocean interactions in glacial fjords, with a fcous on the controls of fjord circulation and temperature structure. Current techniques used to study glacial fjords and their limitations were also presented in detail.
