Dominance of grain size impacts on seasonal snow albedo at deforested sites in New Hampshire [PDF]
Snow cover serves as a major control on the surface energy budget in temperate regions due to its high reflectivity compared to underlying surfaces.

Abstract The long‐standing hypothesis that an ice sheet covered the Tibetan Plateau during the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) has been refuted. Further research has indicated that the Plateau experienced more extensive glacial expansion during Marine Isotope Stage (MIS) 6 than during the LGM.

Shallow and deep groundwater moderate methane dynamics in a high Arctic glacial catchment
Glacial groundwater can mobilize deep-seated methane from beneath glaciers and permafrost in the Arctic, leading to atmospheric emissions of this greenhouse gas.

High resolution spatial variability in spring snowmelt for an Arctic shrub-tundra watershed [PDF]
Arctic tundra environments are characterized by spatially heterogeneous end-of-winter snow cover because of high winds that erode, transport and deposit snow over the winter.

Increased Arctic Sea‐Ice Variability Is Associated With Amplified Air‐Sea Heat Fluxes
Abstract While the role of long‐term sea ice decline in shaping Arctic climate change is well‐established, the contribution of short‐term sea‐ice variability remains insufficiently explored. Here we present observational evidence that since 2007, sea ice fluctuations in Arctic marginal ice zone have remained at a high level.

Abstract Open water in sea ice significantly influences Arctic low‐cloud formation. However, current global climate models (GCMs), constrained by grid‐scale coupling between the atmosphere and surface components, cannot resolve subgrid heat fluxes and clouds contrasts between open water and sea ice, contributing to biases in Arctic low‐cloud ...

Holocene Climate Changes: Unraveling Processes, Mechanisms, and Impacts Across Spatiotemporal Scales
Abstract As the most recent interglacial period and the timeframe for the development of human civilization, the Holocene provides a critical perspective for understanding future climate under continued global warming. This special collection focuses on Holocene climate changes and features 14 interdisciplinary studies.

Arctic summer sea ice loss will accelerate in coming decades
The Arctic sea ice (ASI) is expected to decrease with further global warming. However, considerable uncertainty remains regarding the temperature range that would lead to a completely ice-free Arctic.

Abstract Solar radiation is the key energy input to the ocean. In the Arctic Ocean and its peripheral seas, the distribution of solar radiation is strongly modulated by the presence of sea ice. In this study, we combined satellite and model products to investigate solar radiation partitioning between reflection to the atmosphere, absorption in the ice,
