Fig. 5: Channelized outflowing heat.
From: Ice shelf basal channel shape determines channelized ice-ocean interactions
a Discharge-averaged heat of channelized outflow for S1 runs, as well as H140W8, during the quasi-steady period. Time-averaged vertical thermal structure in the cross-section at the northern boundary in b H60W8, c H140W8, d H220W8, and e H300W8. The ice base in b–e is marked by the yellow lines, and the planar parts of the ice base correspond to the same ice draft. The default value of 0.18 °C inside the solid ice (i.e., above the planar ice base and outside the channel region) has no physical significance. Model grids are also indicated by the mesh.
