Synoptic Controls of Extreme Ice Area Flux Events Along Nares Strait

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Nares Strait, the channel between Ellesmere Island and northwest Greenland, connects the Arctic Ocean's Lincoln Sea to northern Baffin Bay. The transport of thick, multi‐year sea ice southward down the Strait contributes to the overall loss of this important ice class from the Arctic.

Evaluation of the Surface Water Distribution in North-Central Namibia Based on MODIS and AMSR Series [PDF]

, 2014
Semi-arid North-central Namibia has high potential for rice cultivation because large seasonal wetlands (oshana) form during the rainy season. Evaluating the distribution of surface water would reveal the area potentially suitable for rice cultivation ...

Winter‐to‐Winter Sea Surface Temperature Anomaly Reemergence in the Yellow Sea

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract The reemergence of winter sea surface temperature anomalies (SSTAs) serves as an effective oceanic memory mechanism, linking winter SSTs across consecutive years in mid‐latitude deep oceans. However, its existence and potential role in modulating SSTA variability in continental shelf seas have remained largely unexplored.

Episodic Northward Transport Along Nares Strait Brings Anomalously Warm Water Into the Arctic Ocean

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Nares Strait is one of the primary Arctic export pathways for sea ice and freshwater, connecting the Arctic Ocean to the subpolar North Atlantic. The southward transport along the strait, primarily driven by the higher sea level in the Arctic compared to Baffin Bay, has occasionally been observed to reverse.

Assessment of AMSR2 Ice Extent and Ice Edge in the Arctic Using IMS

Remote Sensing, 2020
This work assesses the AMSR2 (the Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer 2) ice extent and ice edge in the Arctic using the ice extent products of NOAA’s Interactive Multisensor Snow and Ice Mapping System (IMS) from the period of July 2015 to July 2019.

Arctic High Resolution Sea‐Ice Forecast System on a Heterogeneous Many‐Core Computing Platform

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 18, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract This study develops an ensemble forecast system for Arctic sea ice with a horizontal resolution of ∼2 km to resolve linear kinematic features (LKFs). The system is designed to run operationally on the Sunway computing architecture, which employs many‐core processors with a distinct programming logic.

Improvement of AMSR2 Soil Moisture Products Over South Korea

IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2017
Soil moisture (SM) is a critical parameter for interpreting the status of land surfaces and vegetation because it has an important role in the exchange of water and heat energy between the land surface and atmosphere. SM can be retrieved with satellite microwave sensors, which offer several advantages in that they are cost-effective, give rapid results,
