SaturnA poleward-thinning ice shell can drive circulation in the subsurface oceans of icy moons by imposing a meridional temperature gradient–colder at the equator than the pole–through the freezing point suppression due to pressure. This temperature gradient sets a buoyancy gradient, whose sign depends on the thermal expansion coefficient determined by ocean salinity. Together with vertical […] The post How Does Ice Shell Geometry Shape Ocean Dynamic…See the Story
