Deriving Antarctic Sea‐Ice Thickness From Satellite Altimetry and Estimating Consistency for NASA's ICESat/ICESat‐2 Missions

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2021
With the launch of the Ice, Cloud and Land Elevation Satellite‐2 (ICESat‐2), densely measuring the Antarctic ocean all year long, monthly sea ice thickness changes can be inspected.

First results of Antarctic sea ice type retrieval from active and passive microwave remote sensing data [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2023
Polar sea ice is one of the Earth's climate components that has been significantly affected by the recent trend of global warming. While the sea ice area in the Arctic has been decreasing at a rate of about 4 % per decade, the multi-year ice (MYI), also ...

Analysis of Spatiotemporal Variations and Influencing Factors of Sea Ice Extent in the Arctic and Antarctic

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2023
The 44 years (1979–2022) of satellite-derived sea ice extent in the Arctic and Antarctic reveals the details and new trends in the process of polar sea ice coverage changes.

Impacts of Observed Extreme Antarctic Sea Ice Conditions on the Southern Hemisphere Atmosphere

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2022
The Antarctic sea ice has undergone dramatic changes in recent years, with the highest recorded sea ice extent in 2014 and the lowest in 2017. We investigated the impacts of the observed changes in these two extremes of Antarctic sea ice conditions on ...

Sensitivity of the Antarctic ice sheets to the warming of marine isotope substage 11c [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2021
Studying the response of the Antarctic ice sheets during periods when climate conditions were similar to the present can provide important insights into current observed changes and help identify natural drivers of ice sheet retreat. In this context, the

The Influence of Antarctic Sea Ice Distribution on the Southern Ocean Overturning Circulation for the Past 20,000 Years

open access: yesProceedings, 2023
Changes in Southern Ocean physics are dynamically linked to westerly winds, ocean currents, and the distribution of Antarctic sea ice in the Southern Hemisphere.

Robust Arctic warming caused by projected Antarctic sea ice loss

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2020
Over the coming century, both Arctic and Antarctic sea ice cover are projected to substantially decline. While many studies have documented the potential impacts of projected Arctic sea ice loss on the climate of the mid-latitudes and the tropics, little

Why Does Arctic Sea Ice Respond More Evidently than Antarctic Sea Ice to Climate Change?

open access: yesOcean-Land-Atmosphere Research, 2023
The current climate change episode has impacted sea ice in the 2 polar regions differently. In the Arctic, remarkable sea ice extent and thickness declines have been observed with a stunning depletion rate of old ice.

Record low Antarctic sea ice coverage indicates a new sea ice state

open access: yesCommunications Earth & Environment, 2023
In February 2023, Antarctic sea ice set a record minimum; there have now been three record-breaking low sea ice summers in seven years. Following the summer minimum, circumpolar Antarctic sea ice coverage remained exceptionally low during the autumn and ...

Spatial-temporal variations of one-year ice in Antarctic different regions, 1988–2020

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2023
In order to increase the comparability of Antarctic sea ice changes, we proposed a new method to quantitatively assess the spatial–temporal variation characteristics of Antarctic one-year ice based on daily Antarctic sea ice concentration data provided ...
