Abstract
Beside geographical and physical characteristics of the environment, mostly temperature changes drive glacier dynamical evolution with subglacial and supraglacial water release or approaching a metastable state. The appearance of subglacial lakes filling bedrock depressions, glacier sliding, crevasses formation and calving are linked climate change sensitive macro-phenomena, where interactions between the interfacing phases are crucial.
We shall discuss the mathematical modelling and the numerical simulation of one of the above glacier problems with moving boundary.
