The initially uniform temperature is at 0°C. This condition simplifies the energy balance at the thawing front by ensuring that there is no thermal gradient (or conductive flux) below the thawing front. The specified surface temperature is above 0°C and hence induces thaw. The water is advected through the entire medium, but the divergence of the advective flux is zero below the thawing front due to the uniform thermal conditions. | The initially uniform temperature is at 0°C.

The approach used for SUTRA code is summed up in two figures from Kurylyk et al 2014 as a source of inspiration. They provide the simulated domain and the approach for the freezing curve function in order to approximate the step function with a linear curve: | The approach used for SUTRA code is summed up in two figures from Kurylyk et al 2014 as a source of inspiration.
