Topography-albedo feedback reinforces the transition to a younger Arctic ice pack [PDF]
Communications Earth & EnvironmentOver the past few decades, the Arctic sea ice cover has rapidly shifted from consisting largely of thicker multiyear ice to predominantly thinner first-year ice. While ice-albedo feedback and reductions in overall ice extent have received a great deal of

Sympagic Fauna in and Under Arctic Pack Ice in the Annual Sea-Ice System of the New Arctic [PDF]
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2020 A strong decline and thinning of the Arctic sea-ice cover over the past five decades has been documented. The former multiyear sea-ice system has largely changed to an annual system and with it the dynamics of sea-ice transport across the Arctic Ocean ...

Low Density of Top Predators (Seabirds and Marine Mammals) in the High Arctic Pack Ice [PDF]
Scientifica, 2016 The at-sea distribution of top predators, seabirds and marine mammals, was determined in the high Arctic pack ice on board the icebreaker RV Polarstern in July to September 2014. In total, 1,620 transect counts were realised, lasting 30 min each.

Future sea ice weakening amplifies wind-driven trends in surface stress and Arctic Ocean spin-up [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsArctic sea ice mediates atmosphere-ocean momentum transfer, which drives upper ocean circulation. How Arctic Ocean surface stress and velocity respond to sea ice decline and changing winds under global warming is unclear.

Multiscale mushy layer model for Arctic marginal ice zone dynamics [PDF]
Scientific ReportsPerhaps the most dynamic component of the Arctic sea ice cover is the marginal ice zone (MIZ), the transitional region between dense pack ice to the north and open ocean to the south.

Potential source regions and processes of aerosol in the summer Arctic [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2015 Sub-micrometer particle size distributions measured during four summer cruises of the Swedish icebreaker Oden 1991, 1996, 2001, and 2008 were combined with dimethyl sulfide gas data, back trajectories, and daily maps of pack ice cover in order to ...

Wave–sea-ice interactions in a brittle rheological framework [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2021 As sea ice extent decreases in the Arctic, surface ocean waves have more time and space to develop and grow, exposing the marginal ice zone (MIZ) to more frequent and more energetic wave events.
