As the relative lengthscale of broken ice in the Marginal Ice Zone is small compared to the wavelength of the waves propogating through it, investigating both scattering and attenuation effects at a macro scale, without the necessity of solving locally, is of interest for both mathematical and physics curiosity and for developing effective climate models. My PhD revolves around this, with particular attention paid towards ice floe motion and attenuation of waves through the MIZ.
Applied Mathematics PhD student focussing on waves in broken ice under Prof. Richard Porter.
