How well do the regional atmospheric and oceanic models describe the Antarctic sea ice albedo? [PDF]
We assessed how well regional climate models (HCLIM, MAR, RACMO), ocean models (MetROMS-UHel, NEMO), and ERA5 reanalysis simulate Antarctic sea ice albedo, snow, and ice thickness, using in situ data from field campaigns (ISPOL, Weddell Sea, in December ...

We document the protocol and first results from the first ever coordinated multimodel variable‐resolution experiment set with refinement over the polar regions. We find that the refinement generally yields model‐dependent effects. The most consistent improvement is an amelioration of the upper‐level cold bias in the polar regions that translates into ...

Monitoring surface albedo at medium-to-fine resolution (<100 m) has become increasingly important for medium-to-fine scale applications and coarse-resolution data evaluation.

Hybrid physics–data‐driven modeling for sea ice thermodynamics and transfer learning
Icepack–NN, a machine‐learning‐based hybrid version of the sea‐ice column model Icepack, is developed to correct state‐dependent forecast errors arising from misspecified snow thermodynamics, using neural networks applied online within the physical model.

We document for the first time how the assimilation of CS2SMOS observations improves the model representation of Arctic sea‐ice thickness (SIT) and its variability: biases are reduced (top row), while excessive variability in the Beaufort Sea and lack of variability in the ice pack are both corrected (bottom row).

This article provides a first evaluation of land‐surface models at the km‐scale resolutions at which they are used in weather and Earth‐system models. At these resolutions, the lateral transfers of water that organize landscapes play an important role in predicting evaporation correctly. Riparian processes and human water management for irrigation need

Analysis of the fractional scattering contribution in the forward peak for multicomponent systems
Derivation and justification of mixing rules for multicomponent systems. A novel formulation of the delta‐Eddington scaling rule. Analytical guidance for comparing radiative transfer results. Abstract The widely used δ‐Eddington approximation improves the accuracy of radiative transfer calculations by representing the fraction of scattering into the ...

The Evolution of Autonomous Systems for Planetary Cave Exploration: A Review
ABSTRACT The exploration of Subsurface Access Points (SAPs), such as lava tubes on the Moon and Mars, has gained significant interest due to their potential as stable environments shielded from surface radiation and temperature extremes. These sites are considered high‐value targets for detecting water and signs of ancient life, and assessing their ...

ABSTRACT As a crucial puzzle piece of deep space exploration, exploring small bodies can provide significant scientific insights and valuable mineral resources. Unlike missions to the Moon and Mars, small‐body missions pose distinct technical challenges, including communication delays, weak gravity, and uncertain environments. This paper reviews a full
