Glacier width in FreeSurfaceSolver
Posted: 04 Jun 2015, 12:08
Hi,
I have a question: is there an easy way to account for the glacier width W(x) in the FreeSurfaceSolver when running a flow-line model? I want to determine the free surface following the equation for the ice thickness as depicted in the attachment.
Thanks,
Sharon
with H the ice thickness, u the depth-averaged horizontal velocity, W the glacier width and b the surface mass balance
