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 …

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 …

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 …

Motivated by the ablation of vertical ice faces in salt water, we use three-dimensional direct
numerical simulations to investigate the heat and salt fluxes in two-scalar vertical …

Turbulent shear flows driven by a combination of a pressure gradient and buoyancy forcing
are investigated using direct numerical simulations. Specifically, we consider the set-up of a …

The presence of salt in seawater significantly affects the melt rate and morphological
evolution of ice. This study investigates the melting process of a vertical cylinder in saline …

Iceberg melting is a critical factor for climate change, contributing to rising sea levels and
climate change. However, the shape of an iceberg is an often neglected aspect of its melting …

In the present work, we investigate the effect of conical roughness on heat flux and coherent
structures for Rayleigh number R a= 10 8 in a three-dimensional (3 D) cubic cell filled with …

We report on the melting dynamics of ice suspended in fresh water and subject to natural
convective flows. Using direct numerical simulations we investigate the melt rate of …

We study numerically the onset of convection in Rotating Rayleigh-B\'enard convection in
horizontally confined geometries of aspect ratio $2 $ with the walls held at fixed …
