Energetics of Eddy-Mean Flow Interactions in the Amery Ice Shelf Cavity

Previous studies demonstrated that eddy processes play an important role in ice shelf basal melting and the water mass properties of ice shelf cavities. However, the eddy energy generation and dissipation mechanisms in ice shelf cavities have not been studied systematically. The dynamic processes of...
