Consider the set of equations modeling the motion of a rigid body enclosed in sea ice. Using Hibler's viscous-plastic model for describing sea ice, it is shown by a certain decoupling approach that this system admits a unique, local strong…

The marginal ice zone is a highly dynamical region where sea ice and ocean waves interact. Large-scale sea ice models only compute domain-averaged responses. As the majority of the marginal ice zone consists of mobile ice floes surrounded…

We investigate the morphodynamics of an ice layer over a turbulent stream of warm water using numerical simulations. At low water speeds, characteristic streamwise undulations appear, which can be explained by the Reynolds analogy between…
