Pathways of Inter‐Basin Exchange From the Bellingshausen Sea to the Amundsen Sea
JOURNAL OF GEOPHYSICAL RESEARCH: OCEANS
02 june 2024
Mar M. Flexas, Andrew F. Thompson, Megan Robertson...
The West Antarctic Ice Sheet is experiencing rapid thinning of its floating ice shelves, largely attributed to oceanic basal melt. Numerical models...

Eddy-induced dispersion of sea ice floes at the marginal ice zone
OCEAN SCIENCES 2024
physical oceanography: mesoscale and smaller | 22 february 2024
Emma Gurcan, Mukund Gupta, Andrew F. Thompson
