Ice, Ice, Baby? A Sociological Exploration of Social Egg Freezing
… context of debates surrounding reproductive ‘choice’ and ‘delayed motherhood’. The study sought to provide insights into how women perceive the risks and benefits of social egg freezing, how it relates to their discourses of parenthood and their future reproductive intentions as well as how the …

Ice-ocean interactions beneath the north-western Ross Ice Shelf, Antarctica
Basal melting of ice shelves is causing accelerating mass loss from the Antarctic Ice Sheet, yet the oceanographic processes which drive this are rarely observed. This thesis uses new observations from phase sensitive radar and moored oceanographic instruments to describe the processes which drive …

Atmospheric drivers of ice drift in the Antarctic marginal ice zone
Sea-ice drift in the Antarctic marginal ice zone (MIZ) was investigated using an array of five drifting ice buoys, deployed during the winter sea-ice expansion, in July 2017. An initial 15- day analysis of pancake ice drift is presented, using the cluster of buoys, which shows: (1) exceptionally …

Investigation of the Interactions Between Sea Ice Algae from the Marginal Ice Zone of Antarctica and Artificial Sea Ice
Sea ice is multi-phase system that plays a major role in the Earth's climate system. Sea ice algae act as primary producers of organic carbon, forming the building blocks

Computational modelling of ice floe dynamics in the Antarctic marginal ice zone.
The contribution of Antarctic sea ice in global climate models requires a more accurately estimation, as a relatively large part, approximately 4% of the Earth's surface in the winter season, is covered by sea ice. Understanding the dynamic and thermodynamic processes of sea ice, results in a …

Ice Cream, You Scream
<p>I set out to make a lighthearted comedy punctuated with some scary moments. I wanted this story to come from a seven-year-old girl's point of view and match fantastic visuals with equally fantastic sounds. I will discuss the entire creative process in this book such as preproduction, writing, …

The inclusivity of ice.
… quality is the phase transition from water to ice, where scientists have used this phase transition to hypothesize the theory of self-purification of ice. Here, the implications of this theory have been examined through the utilization of a modified-Czochralski freezing method with inorganic …

Sea-ice and ice-shelf variability in the Amundsen Sea Embayment, West Antarctica
Global sea-level rise contributed by Antarctic ice-mass loss could soon outpace all other sources. The ice-mass-loss signal of the Antarctic Ice Sheet is dominated by the Amundsen Sea Embayment (ASE) in West Antarctica. Ice shelves in the ASE influence the ice-mass-loss rates of the Antarctic Ice …

Theory and numerical modelling of dynamic ice-structure interaction for ice-induced vibrations
… first stage, a dynamic single degree-of-freedom ice-structure interaction model is developed based on a novel physical mechanism combination between self-excited vibration and forced vibration. Van der Pol equation, together with ice stress-strain rate curve and ice-velocity failure length are …

Effect of temperature-dependent ice properties on ice shell convection for icy ocean worlds
Ice shell dynamics are a critical control on the habitability of icy ocean worlds. Here, we present a systematic study evaluating the effect of temperature-dependent material properties on these dynamics. We review the published thermal conductivity data for ice, which demonstrates that the most …

Where the Ice Ends: Calving and Ice-Ocean Interactions at Helheim Glacier and Beyond
Continued mass loss of the Greenland Ice Sheet has contributed to sea level rise at a rate of 0.8 mm year$^{-1}$ since 2002, with ice dynamics accounting for $66 \pm 8$\% of the mass loss signal. One of the main components of this dynamic mass loss signal is iceberg calving, the detachment of ice …
