Mixing, water transformation, and melting close to a tidewater glacier
Marine‐terminating glacier fjords play a central role in the transport of oceanic heat toward
ice sheets, regulating their melt. Mixing processes near glacial termini are key to this …

Parameterizing subglacial discharge in modeling buoyancy driven flow in tidewater glacier Fjords
In tidewater glacier fjords, subglacial discharge drives a significant mixing mechanism near
glacier fronts and drives a strong exchange flow. Numerous studies (Cowton et al., 2015 …

Co-seismic eruption and intermittent turbulence of a subglacial discharge plume revealed by continuous subsurface observations in Greenland
In the Arctic, subglacial discharge plumes have been recently recognised as a key driver of
fjord-scale circulation. However, owing to the danger that accompanies prolonged …

Entrainment into particle-laden turbulent plumes
We use laboratory experiments to investigate the entrainment of ambient fluid into an
axisymmetric turbulent plume containing dense particles with a settling velocity that is …
