Ice in the environment plays a central role in both global-scale processes on Earth and
many human activities. Issues related to its description, including the modelling of natural ice …

To study turbulent thermal convection, one often chooses a Rayleigh-Bénard flow
configuration, where a fluid is confined between a heated bottom plate, a cooled top plate of …

We numerically study the melting process of a solid layer heated from below such that a
liquid melt layer develops underneath. The objective is to quantitatively describe and …

An unstably stratified flow entering into a stably stratified flow is referred to as penetrative
convection, which is crucial to many physical processes and has been thought of as a key …

The presence of salt in seawater strongly affects the melt rate and the shape evolution of ice,
both of utmost relevance in ice–ocean interactions and thus for the climate. To get a better …

The seasonal dynamics of freshwater lake ice and its interactions with air and snow are
studied in two small subarctic lakes with comparable surface areas but contrasting depths …

Melting and solidification processes, intertwined with convective flows, play a fundamental
role in geophysical contexts. One of these processes is the formation of melt ponds on …

Sea ice is crucial in many natural processes and human activities. Understanding the
dynamical couplings between the inception, growth and equilibrium of sea ice and the rich …

We conduct numerical investigations on turbulent Rayleigh–Bénard (RB) convection
modulated by oscillating filaments, where an array of active filaments is adhered to the …

We numerically investigate turbulent Rayleigh–Bénard convection through two immiscible
fluid layers, aiming to understand how the layer thickness and fluid properties affect the heat …
