DESCRIPTION:*Joe*: Dissolution of salt caverns for hydrogen storage\n\nThe
  low permeability of salt rock (halite) means salt caverns can be used for
  long term storage of large amounts of hydrogen.  I will introduce some an
 alogue experiments and simple modelling to investigate how the size and sh
 ape of these caverns evolve as they are artificially created.\n\n*Maggie*:
  Could bubble curtains slow down marine glacier melt?\n\nBubble plumes (or
  fluid curtains more broadly) are effective at separating transient buoyan
 cy-driven flows in a variety of engineered settings such as ship locks and
  supermarket displays. I am interested in investigating the proposed effic
 acy of similar fluid barriers in separating long-term heat exchange betwee
 n the semi-infinite heat reservoir of the ocean from the finite heat reser
 voir of an ice shelf. I will present some early work in thinking about the
  problem only as mass/concentration exchange across control volumes and (v
 ery) preliminary data from laboratory experiments.\n\n*Jacob*: Freezing Po
 rous Gravity Currents\n\nMotivated by recent interest in Arctic sea ice th
 ickening\, we explore porous gravity currents undergoing freezing through 
 experimental work which we compare to non-freezing porous gravity current 
 theory.
