Improved convergence and stability properties in a three-dimensional higher-order ice sheet model
We present a finite difference implementation of a three-dimensional higher-order ice sheet model. In comparison to a conventional centred difference discretisation it enhances both numerical stability and convergence. In order to achieve these benefits the discretisation of the governing force bala...
