Turbulent drag at the ice-ocean interface of Europa in simulations of rotating convection: implications for nonsynchronous rotation of the ice shell
Europa's geologically scarred surface shows significant evidence that the ice shell may have rotated nonsynchronously in the past. The long-term spin state of the ice shell is controlled by the time-mean torques acting upon it. A torque that has not been previously considered is exerted due to...
