+Namelist variable in \ngn{namsbc}, \np{nn\_isf},  control the kind of ice shelf representation used. 
+\begin{description}
+\item[\np{nn\_isf}~=~1]
+The ice shelf cavity is represented. The fwf and heat flux are computed. 
+Full description, sensitivity and validation in preparation. 
+
+\item[\np{nn\_isf}~=~2]
+A parameterisation of isf is used. The ice shelf cavity is not represented. 
+The fwf is distributed along the ice shelf edge between the depth of the average grounding line (GL)
+(\np{sn\_depmax\_isf}) and the base of the ice shelf along the calving front (\np{sn\_depmin\_isf}) as in (\np{nn\_isf}~=~3). 
+Furthermore the fwf is computed using the \citet{Beckmann2003} parameterisation of isf melting. 
+The effective melting length (\np{sn\_Leff\_isf}) is read from a file.
+
+\item[\np{nn\_isf}~=~3]
+A simple parameterisation of isf is used. The ice shelf cavity is not represented. 
+The fwf (\np{sn\_rnfisf}) is distributed along the ice shelf edge between the depth of the average grounding line (GL)
+(\np{sn\_depmax\_isf}) and the base of the ice shelf along the calving front (\np{sn\_depmin\_isf}).
+Full description, sensitivity and validation in preparation.
+
+\item[\np{nn\_isf}~=~4]
+The ice shelf cavity is represented. However, the fwf (\np{sn\_fwfisf}) and heat flux (\np{sn\_qisf}) are 
+not computed but specified from file. 
+\end{description}
+
+\np{nn\_isf}~=~1 and \np{nn\_isf}~=~2 compute a melt rate based on the water masse properties, ocean velocities and depth.
+ This flux is thus highly dependent of the model resolution (horizontal and vertical), realism of the water masse onto the shelf ...
+
+\np{nn\_isf}~=~3 and \np{nn\_isf}~=~4 read the melt rate and heat flux from a file. You have total control of the fwf scenario.
+
+ This can be usefull if the water masses on the shelf are not realistic or the resolution (horizontal/vertical) are too 
+coarse to have realistic melting or for sensitivity studies where you want to control your input. 
+Full description, sensitivity and validation in preparation. 
+
+There is 2 ways to apply the fwf to NEMO. The first possibility (\np{ln\_divisf}~=~false) applied the fwf
+ and heat flux directly on the salinity and temperature tendancy. The second possibility (\np{ln\_divisf}~=~true)
+ apply the fwf as for the runoff fwf (see \S\ref{SBC_rnf}). The mass/volume addition due to the ice shelf melting is,
+ at each relevant depth level, added to the horizontal divergence (\textit{hdivn}) in the subroutine \rou{sbc\_isf\_div} 
+(called from \mdl{divcur}).
