Abstract
Ice manifests in a variety of contexts, ranging from Earth to planetary environments. We first explore how and why ice is important in different settings. Then we consider two ongoing studies, one observational and one numerical, which investigate different facets of Arctic sea ice properties. In the first, we consider how unsupervised learning may be used to characterize observations of sea ice floes. In the second, we describe how numerical simulations of viscous ice overlying an inviscid ocean demonstrate how ice rheology and thickness relate to wave energy dissipation. We conclude by considering how similar principles may extend to ice in different environments.
