Antarctic sea ice, which undergoes large seasonal changes and plays a crucial role in the global climate system, showed a gradual increasing trend in its extent from the late 1970s to 2015 but experienced a sharp decline in 2016, followed by record lows ...

ABSTRACT Process‐based depositional models for perennially ice‐covered lakes (PICLs) are important for interpreting palaeolake deposits and their connection to past climate. PICLs are only stable under specific climate states, and unlike other ice‐free or seasonally ice‐covered lakes, PICL deposits generally have bimodal grain sizes: mud introduced by ...

ABSTRACT During the Middle Miocene Badenian Salinity Crisis (BSC), extensive evaporites formed across different tectonic settings in the Central Paratethys. Limited age constraints hamper evaporite correlation and identification of driving mechanisms. Here, we use U–Pb dating of zircon by LA‐ICP‐MS from tephra overlying the Tuzla Basin evaporites.

Anatomy of Arctic and Antarctic sea ice lows in an ocean–sea ice model
Sea ice has exhibited a number of record lows in both hemispheres over the past two decades. While the causes of individualsea ice lows have already been investigated, no systematic comparison across events and hemispheres has been conductedin a consistent framework yet.

Polar Summer Snow and Ice Albedo Feedbacks Assessed by Satellite Observations and Radiative Kernels
Snow and ice albedo feedback (SIAF) is a key process linking cryospheric changes to global warming. Satellite radiative kernels provide another choice for estimating radiative feedbacks, bypassing the complexity of climate model radiative transfer ...

Sea ice formation over open water exerts critical control on polar atmosphere‐ocean‐ice interactions, but is only crudely represented in sea ice models. In this study, a collection depth parameterization of new ice for flux polynya models is modified by ...

Improved satellite‐derived gravity data support updated interpretations and models of ancient plate boundaries and plate motions affecting Zealandia and West Antarctica. The models combine to confidently resolve hundreds of kilometres of Late Cretaceous–Eocene motion between the Pacific and Lord Howe plates, confirming that plate circuit constructions ...
