Icy flows with freezing and melting

If you have a question about this talk, please contact Anna Walczyk .

Liquid water on top and beneath ice sheets flows through porous networks whose permeability evolves due to freezing or melting induced by the water flow itself. When freezing occurs, any water infiltration can be self-limiting, for example leading to the formation of internal solid ice structures within snowpack. Where flow leads to melt, positive feedback leads to patterning, generating large thawed channels. I’ll describe some examples of these systems, efforts to model them, and their relevance in understanding the future evolution of ice sheets.
