Hydrography, circulation, and response to atmospheric forcing in the vicinity of the central Getz Ice Shelf, Amundsen Sea, Antarctica
Dundas, Vår Iren Hjorth; Darelius, Elin Maria K.; Daae, Kjersti; Steiger, Nadine; Nakayama, Yoshihiro; Kim, Tae-Wan (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Ice shelves in the Amundsen Sea are thinning rapidly as ocean currents bring warm water into the cavities beneath the floating ice. Although the reported melt rates for the Getz Ice Shelf are comparatively low for the ... -
Observational evidence for on-shelf heat transport driven by dense water export in the Weddell Sea
Darelius, Elin Maria K.; Daae, Kjersti; Dundas, Vår Iren Hjorth; Fer, Ilker; Hellmer, Hartmut H.; Janout, Markus; Nicholls, Keith W.; Sallée, Jean-Bapiste; Østerhus, Svein (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)The transport of oceanic heat towards the Antarctic continental margin is central to the mass balance of the Antarctic Ice Sheet. Recent modeling efforts challenge our view on where and how the on-shelf heat flux occurs, ... -
Oceanic heat transport towards Getz Ice Shelf, Amundsen Sea
Dundas, Vår Iren Hjorth (Master thesis, 2019-12-11)Two years of mooring data from a trough leading up to one of the central ice shelf fronts of the Getz Ice Shelf, Western Amundsen Sea, are used to describe the local hydrography and currents, their variability and possible ... -
Sudden, local temperature increase above the continental slope in the southern Weddell Sea, Antarctica
Darelius, Elin Maria K.; Dundas, Vår Iren Hjorth; Janout, Markus; Tippenhauer, Sandra (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Around most of Antarctica, the Circumpolar Deep Water (CDW) shows a warming trend. At the same time, the thermocline is shoaling, thereby increasing the potential for CDW to enter the shallow continental shelves and ...
