Antarctic landfast sea ice (fast ice) is stationary sea ice that is attached to the coast,
grounded icebergs, ice shelves, or other protrusions on the continental shelf. Fast ice forms …

Thermodynamic ablation of ice in contact with the ocean is an essential element of ice sheet
and ocean interactions but is challenging to model and quantify. Building on earlier …

The causes of the recent increase in Antarctic sea ice extent, characterised by large regional
contrasts and decadal variations, remain unclear. In the Ross Sea, where such a sea ice …

Katabatic winds in coastal polynyas expose the ocean to extreme heat loss, causing intense
sea ice production and dense water formation around Antarctica throughout autumn and …

Basal melt of ice shelves is not only an important part of Antarctica's ice sheet mass budget,
but it is also the origin of platelet ice, one of the most distinctive types of sea ice. In many …

Antarctic sea ice that has been affected by supercooled Ice Shelf Water (ISW) has a unique
crystallographic structure and is called platelet ice. In this paper we synthesize platelet ice …

The circulation over the Ross Sea continental shelf facilitates the exchange between the
Southern Ocean and the Ross Ice Shelf cavity. Here transport and mixing processes control …

We investigate the structure and evolution of multiphase ice-ocean interfaces ('mushy
layers') and the implications for the geophysics and habitability of ice-ocean worlds …

Ocean heat supply to ice shelves has a significant impact on the long‐term evolution of ice
shelves. Intrusions of warm surface waters into the frontal region of the cavity, known as …

Understanding ice shelf–ocean interaction is fundamental to projecting the Antarctic ice
sheet response to a warming climate. Numerical ice shelf–ocean models are a powerful tool …
