Modelling ocean melt of ice mélange at Greenland's marine-terminating glaciers: datasets and code

Datasets and code associated with "Modelling the ocean melt of ice mélange at Greenland's marine-terminating glaciers". 

This archive contains:

• code.zip: the code directory needed to recreate the numerical simulations
• input_ms_q300_t0.zip: the input directory needed to create the ms_q300_t0 simulation
• melange_profiles.zip: all of the mélange profiles used in the simulations:
  • the three mélange profiles for lambda = 0.6 (thin, standard, thick)
  • the four standard mélange profiles at different values of lambda (lambda = 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5)
  • the script used to generate the mélange profiles
• output_ms_q300_t0.zip: the output of the final timestep of the ms_q300_t0 simulation
• temperature_profiles.zip: the temperature profiles used in the simulations

To create the numerical simulations within MITgcm, only the "code" and "input" directories are needed. The desired temperature profile, subglacial discharge flux and mélange profile can be selected in the "gendata.m" script within the input directory. Running this gendata.m script then generates the input binary files needed to run the simulation.
