SEA ICE DYNAMICS

R.A.s: Z.-L. Wang, J.W. McLaughlin
Collaborators: H.D. Wu, NCMEF, China; H.H. Shen, Clarkson U.

A pure Lagrangian numerical model for sea ice dyanmics is developed. The model is based on the discrete-parcel method with smoothed particle hydrodynamics. The method is being used to study sea ice dynamic processes.
