SedBerg: iceberg-rafted sedimentation
Ruth Mugford and Julian Dowdeswell of Scott Polar Research Institute, UK, developed SedBerg. SedBerg simulates calving, drift and melt of icebergs from tidewater glacierfronts through fjords. The modeled icebergs carry sediment and this slowly melts out and is released to the seafloor. Sediments on the seafloor are an indispensable record of glaciological response to past climate variations.
