AbstractWe examine CMIP6 simulations of Arctic sea‐ice area and volume. We find that CMIP6 models produce a wide spread of mean Arctic sea‐ice area, capturing the observational estimate within the multimodel ensemble spread. The CMIP6 multimodel ensemble mean provides a more realistic estimate of the sensitivity of September Arctic sea‐ice area to a ...

Arctic sea ice and Eurasian climate: A review [PDF]
AbstractThe Arctic plays a fundamental role in the climate system and has shown significant climate change in recent decades, including the Arctic warming and decline of Arctic sea-ice extent and thickness. In contrast to the Arctic warming and reduction of Arctic sea ice, Europe, East Asia and North America have experienced anomalously cold conditions,

Influence of sea ice on Arctic precipitation [PDF]
SignificanceThere has been a growing consensus that a decrease in sea ice would cause an increase in Arctic precipitation because of the potential for increased local evaporation. We quantify the effect of sea ice on the percentage of moisture sourced from the Arctic, using measurements of the isotopic composition of precipitation at six sites across ...

Our understanding of Arctic sea ice and its wide-ranging influence is deeply rooted in observation. Advancing technologies have profoundly improved our ability to observe Arctic sea ice, document its processes and properties, and describe atmosphere-ice-ocean interactions with unprecedented detail.

Impact of Variable Atmospheric and Oceanic Form Drag on Simulations of Arctic Sea Ice [PDF]
Over Arctic sea ice, pressure ridges and floe and melt pond edges all introduce discrete obstructions to the flow of air or water past the ice and are a source of form drag.

Can uncertainties in sea ice albedo reconcile patterns of data-model discord for the Pliocene and 20th/21st centuries? [PDF]
General Circulation Model simulations of the mid-Pliocene warm period (mPWP, 3.264 to 3.025 Myr ago) currently underestimate the level of warming that proxy data suggest existed at high latitudes, with discrepancies of up to 11°C for sea surface ...

Investigating Arctic Sea Ice Survivability in the Beaufort Sea [PDF]
Arctic sea ice extent has continued to decline in recent years, and the fractional coverage of multi-year sea ice has decreased significantly during this period. The Beaufort Sea region has been the site of much of the loss of multi-year sea ice, and it continues to play a large role in the extinction of ice during the melt season.

The Summer North Atlantic Oscillation, Arctic sea ice, and Arctic jet Rossby wave forcing. [PDF]
We use Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6 (CMIP6) coupled and Atmospheric Model Intercomparison Project (AMIP) climate models, dynamical analyses, and observations to investigate interactions between summer Arctic sea ice concentration (SIC ...

Recent trends in melting conditions on the Antarctic Peninsula and their implications for ice-sheet mass balance and sea level [PDF]
Long-term records from meteorological stations on the Antarctic Peninsula show strong rising trends in the annual duration of melting conditions. In each case, the trend is statistically significant and represents a major increase in the potential for ...

Recent freshening in the Kara sea (Siberia) recorded by stable isotopes in Arctic bivalve shells, [PDF]
Oxygen and stable carbon isotope records along the growth direction on shells of the bivalve species Astarte borealis and Serripes groenlandicus reliably record all important aspects of the bottom water hydrography in the shallow southeastern Kara Sea ...
