SedBerg: iceberg-rafted sedimentation
Ruth Mugford and Julian Dowdeswell of Scott Polar Research Institute, UK, developed SedBerg. SedBerg stochastically simulates glacier front calving, and subsequently model iceberg drift trajectories in a fjord with the equation for motion. 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.
