Europa's Ocean Translates Interior Tidal Heating Patterns to the Ice‐Ocean Boundary

Abstract The circulation in Europa's ocean determines the degree of thermal, mechanical and chemical coupling between the ice shell and the silicate mantle. Using global direct numerical simulations, we investigate the effect of heterogeneous tidal heating in the silicate mantle on rotating the...
