🏔️ Glacier Calving: Nye Crevasse Depth, Meltwater Hydrofracture and Flotation (2D side view)
2D side view of a glacier front meeting the sea. Set ice thickness, water depth, strain rate, ice temperature, meltwater filling and ice speed, and watch a crevasse deepen as it fills with meltwater until the block in front calves. Same glacier calving idea as the 3D page, with four in-page numerical checks.
