Europa's Ocean Translates Interior Tidal Heating Patterns to the Ice‐Ocean Boundary

DG Lemasquerier, CJ Bierson, KM Soderlund - AGU Advances, 2023 - Wiley Online Library
The circulation in Europa's ocean determines the degree of thermal, mechanical and
chemical coupling between the ice shell and the silicate mantle. Using global direct …

[HTML][HTML] Water temperature evolution driven by solar radiation in an ice-covered lake: a numerical study and observational data

S Smirnov, A Smirnovsky, G Zdorovennova… - Water, 2022 - mdpi.com
Until now, the phenomenon of radiatively driven convection (RDC) in ice-covered lakes has
not been sufficiently studied, despite its important role in the functioning of aquatic …

Stratified horizontal convection

D Noto, HN Ulloa, T Yanagisawa… - Journal of fluid …, 2023 - cambridge.org
Surface differential heating on a stably stratified fluid body drives an overturning circulation
confined to the upper fluid region–here coined stratified horizontal convection (SHC). In this …

Interaction between forced and natural convection in a thin cylindrical fluid layer at low Prandtl number
