Abstract:
The zip file contains:
- Submarine melt rates and plume dynamics at 79NG simulated using the 1D Ice Shelf Water plume model from Jenkins, 1991 (STANDARDrun60.dat).
- Hydrography measured in the cavity of the 79NG using a CTD as obtained in September 2009 by Wilson and Straneo, 2015 (ctd23.dat).
- Processed ice base topography along the centreline of the 79NG, modified from RTopo2, Schaffer et al., 2016 (ice_base_topography.dat).
- 1D ISW plume model based on Jenkins, 1991; Smedsrud and Jenkins, 2004; Jenkins, 2011 (.mat).
- MATLAB script to plot submarine melt rates and plume dynamics (plot_it.mat).
