◆ ice_temperature_guess()

double pism::energy::ice_temperature_guess ( EnthalpyConverter::Ptr  EC,
double  H,
double  z,
double  T_surface,
double  G,
double  ice_k 
)

A heuristic formula for the temperature distribution within a column of ice. Used during bootstrapping. A simple quartic guess.

Parameters
[in]ECenthalpy converter
[in]Hice thickness
[in]zheight above the base of the ice, 0 <= z <= H
[in]T_surfacesurface temperature, in Kelvin
[in]Gupward basal heat flux, in W / meter^2
[in]ice_kthermal conductivity of ice
