Sediment-laden gravity currents, or turbidity currents, are density-driven flows that transport
vast quantities of particulate material across the floor of lakes and oceans. Turbidity currents …

Subglacial meltwater drainage can enhance localized melting along grounding zones and
beneath the ice shelves of marine-terminating glaciers. Efforts to constrain the evolution of …

As the role of the Greenland Ice Sheet in the Arctic mercury (Hg) budget draws scrutiny, it is
crucial to understand mercury cycling in glacial fjords, which control exchanges with the …

Recently, the dynamics of flows in cold freshwater (temperatures around the temperature of
maximum density, 3.98 oC) has garnered much interest in the environmental fluid dynamics …

Experiments are performed examining particle settling from constant-flux surface gravity
currents and from a near-stationary layer of particle-bearing fluid overlying a saline ambient …

This paper summarizes the results of the first investigation into the effect of particle‐laden
plumes on glacier melting using laboratory experiments. We find that the melt rate, when the …

Laboratory experiments are conducted to examine the evolution of and sedimentation from a
particle-bearing jet advancing along a horizontal or downward-sloping boundary underlying …

The glacial fjords that connect the Greenland Ice Sheet to the North Atlantic control ocean
heat transport toward the ice sheet and the downstream fate of glacier meltwater. This thesis …

This paper summarizes the results of the first investigation into the effect of particle-laden
plumes on glacier melting using laboratory experiments. We find that the melt rate, when the …
