A Study of the M-2 Tide in the Ice-Covered Arctic Ocean [PDF]

open access: yesModeling, Identification and Control, 1981
A model to study M2 tide propagation in the Arctic Ocean based on the equation of motion of the water and the pack ice, is considered. The mechanics of the ice floe interaction is described by the non-linear viscous constitutive loaw.

Variability and changes of Arctic sea ice draft distribution – submarine sonar measurements revisited [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2011
Changes in the mean sea ice thickness and concentration in the Arctic are well known. However, quantitative information about changes in the ice thickness distribution and the composition of the pack ice is lacking.

Atmospheric highs drive asymmetric sea ice drift during lead opening from Point Barrow [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2023
Throughout winter, the winds of migrating weather systems drive the recurrent opening of sea ice leads from Alaska's northernmost headland, Point Barrow.

Status and trends in the structure of Arctic benthic food webs [PDF]

open access: yesPolar Research, 2015
Ongoing climate warming is causing a dramatic loss of sea ice in the Arctic Ocean, and it is projected that the Arctic Ocean will become seasonally ice-free by 2040.

Past and future interannual variability in Arctic sea ice in coupled climate models [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2019
The diminishing Arctic sea ice pack has been widely studied, but previous research has mostly focused on time-mean changes in sea ice rather than on short-term variations that also have important physical and societal consequences.

Climate change and ice hazards in the Beaufort Sea

open access: yesElementa: Science of the Anthropocene, 2014
Recent reductions in the summer extent of sea ice have focused the world’s attention on the effects of climate change. Increased CO2-derived global warming is rapidly shrinking the Arctic multi-year ice pack.

SASIEv.1: a framework for seasonal and multi-centennial Arctic sea ice emulation [PDF]

open access: yesGeoscientific Model Development
The high computational expense of complex climate models and their tendency to underestimate observational records of Arctic sea ice sensitivity to anthropogenic forcers challenge our ability to assess the magnitude of forcing that will cause Arctic sea ...

Toward a marginal Arctic sea ice cover: changes to freezing, melting and dynamics [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere
As the summer Arctic sea ice extent has retreated, the marginal ice zone (MIZ) has been widening. The MIZ is defined as the region of the ice cover that is influenced by waves and for convenience here is defined as the region of the ice cover between sea

A Submarine Sonar Study of Arctic Pack Ice [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 1975
AbstractA continuous profile of the Arctic Ocean ice canopy from Spitsbergen to the North Pole was made with 48 kHz echo sounders mourned on a nuclear submarine. A semi-automatic digitizer was used to measure coordinates from the records at a frequency of about 1 000 points per linear kilometre of track.

Oxygen fluxes beneath Arctic land-fast ice and pack ice: towards estimates of ice productivity [PDF]

open access: yesPolar Biology, 2018
Sea-ice ecosystems are among the most extensive of Earth’s habitats; yet its autotrophic and heterotrophic activities remain poorly constrained. We employed the in situ aquatic eddy-covariance (AEC) O2 flux method and laboratory incubation techniques (H14CO3−, [3H] thymidine and [3H] leucine) to assess productivity in Arctic sea-ice using different ...
