Subaqueous melting of Store Glacier, west Greenland from three‐dimensional, high‐resolution numerical modeling and ocean observations (2013, methodology): “[4] On the modeling side, a simplified plume model [Jenkins, 2011] and a two-dimensional (2-D) simulation using the Massachusetts Institute of Technology general circulation model (MITgcm) [Xu et al.”
Calving on tidewater glaciers amplified by submarine frontal melting (2012, background): “Jenkins(2011) has provided some explanation of these results, using a model of plume-driven melting.”
Modeling the impact of glacial runoff on fjord circulation and submarine melt rate using a new subgrid-scale parameterization for glacial plumes (2015, background): “For example, although very high (>5 m d(21)) melt rates have been predicted in areas directly adjacent to upwelling subglacial runoff [Jenkins, 2011; Xu et al., 2012], the importance of this process when considered across the entirety of the glacier front remains unclear.”
Antarctic sub-shelf melt rates via PICO (2017, methodology): “This approach has been applied to models with characteristic conditions for Antarctic ice shelves (Holland et al., 2007; Payne et al., 2007; Lazeroms et al., 2018) and for Greenland outlet glaciers and fjord systems (Jenkins, 2011; Carroll et al., 2015; Beckmann et al., 2018).”
Resolving and Parameterising the Ocean Mesoscale in Earth System Models (2020, unknown): “Work with detailed models of fjord dynamics [148–150] (at resolutions much finer than ESMs) and analytical models [151, 152] are working towards parameterisations suitable for ESMs.”
Challenges and Prospects in Ocean Circulation Models (2019, background): “, from melting glaciers and iceshelves, can be represented by buoyant plume models (Jenkins, 2011) which have been implemented into larger-scale GCMs (Slater et al.”
