Within this polar project of our team, spanning the period 2002-2005, we added a thermal submodel to the available three-dimensional model of glacier dynamics and we optimised the time discretization using semilagrangian methods. The main applications focused on Aldegondabreen, Spitsbergen […]

Numerical modelling of the dynamics and thermal regime of glaciers. Application to the glacier system of Livingston Is. (2000-2002)
Within this polar project of our team, spanning the period 1999-2001, we developed the three-dimensional and time-dependent version of our model of glacier dynamics. Its main applications focused on Johnsons glacier, Livingston Island, Antarctica. We improved VIRL2 ground-penetrating radar, renamed […]
Modelling glacier flow in Livingston Island (1998-1999)
Within this polar project of our team, spanning the period 1998-1999, we developed a bidimensional model of the steady-state dynamics of temperate glaciers, which we applied to simulate the dynamics of flowplanes of Abramov glacier, Alai Ridge, Central Asia, and […]
