Sentence examples for the dynamics of ice from inspiring English sources

One persistent issue is the dynamics of ice sheets.

There are still gaps in scientific understanding of the Antarctic, mainly around the dynamics of ice sheets.

The map of ice in motion, which traces parts of the eastern Antarctic region that have previously been hard to see, offers a new and powerful tool for the study of the dynamics of ice melting into the southern seas.

Its centerpiece, a life-size snow globe covered in transparent plastic, shelters a skating surface, also made of plastic, which is covered in an oil-based glide enhancer that simulates the dynamics of ice.

In this paper we develop and implement anisotropic radial basis function methods for simulating the dynamics of ice sheets and glaciers.

Application of appropriate averaging techniques to partial differential equations describing the dynamics of water ice phase transitions reduces spatially distributed relations to several ordinary differential equations with control parameters and uncertainties.

But while the model does not predict the timing well, what it does model with better confidence is how the region's topography and the dynamics of the ice could possibly prevent a catastrophic ice discharge, Levermann said.

Since the existence of the trough causes the acceleration of the slow-moving inland ice in the Jakobshavn region and the formation of the ice stream, correct representation of the trough in a DEM is essential to model changes in the dynamics of the ice sheet and resultant sea-level predictions, even if current ice-sheet models can typically be run only at 5-km resolution.

Scientists have speculated for some years that so-called feedback mechanisms – by which the warming of one area or type of landscape has knock-on effects for whole ecosystems – could suddenly take hold and change the dynamics of Arctic ice melting from a relatively slow to a fast-moving phenomenon with unpredictable and potentially irreversible consequences for global warming.

Indeed, as the subglacial troughs evolve over millions of years, they increase topographic relief; and this changes the dynamics of the ice sheet.

Significant differences between the fractal dimensions on two separate wintering grounds in Baffin Bay suggest differential movement patterns in response to the dynamics of sea ice.
