Antarctic landfast sea ice: A review of its physics, biogeochemistry and ecology
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 …

Ice-ocean exchange processes in the Jovian and Saturnian satellites
A growing number of satellites in the outer solar system likely have global oceans beneath
their outer icy shells. While the presence of liquid water makes these ocean worlds …

Platelet ice, the Southern Ocean's hidden ice: A review
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 …

Observed platelet ice distributions in Antarctic sea ice: An index for ocean‐ice shelf heat flux
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 …

Variability in the distribution of fast ice and the sub‐ice platelet layer near McMurdo Ice Shelf
Variability in the volume of supercooled Ice Shelf Water outflow in McMurdo Sound is
reflected in the thickness and distribution of fast ice and the sub‐ice platelet layer beneath …

The seasonal appearance of ice shelf water in coastal Antarctica and its effect on sea ice growth
In this paper we report measurements from the first year‐round mooring underneath sea ice
in McMurdo Sound, Antarctica, which we combine with full‐depth ocean profiles to identify …

Platelet ice under Arctic pack ice in winter
The formation of platelet ice is well known to occur under Antarctic sea ice, where subice
platelet layers form from supercooled ice shelf water. In the Arctic, however, platelet ice …

Evolution of a supercooled Ice Shelf Water plume with an actively growing subice platelet matrix
We use new observations in Western McMurdo Sound, combined with longitudinal
hydrographic transects of the sound, to identify a northward‐flowing Ice Shelf Water (ISW) …
