Abstract
Ices in protoplanetary disks play key roles in planet formation and habitability. To date, ice detection via infrared spectral signatures has been limited to small number of disks (Boogert et al. 2015). The recently-launched James Webb Space Telescope and other upcoming observational facilities are poised to revolutionize our view of disk ices. However, the geometric and chemical structure of disks makes the interpretation of ice observations non-trivial. We present simulated observations of disk ices to complement the upcoming observations. We use a detailed disk chemical evolution code to derive the abundance and distribution of various ice species, followed by a radiative transfer code to predict the observable features. We explore the effect of disk inclination and initial chemical conditions on observable features and highlight the benefit of obtaining spatially-resolved ice observations.
