• Frazil ice formation in ice shelf water plume 

      Smedsrud, Lars Henrik; Jenkins, Adrian (Journal article, 2004-03-17)
      We present a model for the growth of frazil ice crystals and their accumulation as marine ice at the base of Antarctic ice shelves. The model describes the flow of buoyant water upward along the ice shelf base and includes ...
    • Modeling ocean processes below Fimbulisen, Antarctica 

      Smedsrud, Lars Henrik; Jenkins, Adrian; Holland, David M.; Nøst, Ole A. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2006-01-18)
      Model simulations of circulation and melting beneath Fimbulisen, Antarctica, obtained using an isopycnic coordinate ocean model, are presented. Model results compare well with available observations of currents and hydrography ...
    • Water mass modification over the continental shelf north of Ronne Ice Shelf, Antarctica 

      Nicholls, Keith W.; Padman, L.; Schröder, Michael; Woodgate, R. A.; Jenkins, Adrian; Østerhus, Svein (Journal article, 2003-08-13)
      We use new data from the southern Weddell Sea continental shelf to describe water mass conversion processes in a formation region for cold and dense precursors of Antarctic Bottom Water. The cruises took place in early ...
