Cryosphere: a kingdom of anomalies and diversity [PDF]

Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2018
Abstract. The cryosphere of the Earth overlaps with the atmosphere, hydrosphere and lithosphere over vast areas with temperatures below zero C and pronounced H2O phase changes. In spite of its strong variability in space and time, the cryosphere plays the role of a global thermostat keeping the thermal regime on the Earth within rather narrow limits ...

Variability and change in the Canadian cryosphere [PDF]

Climatic Change, 2012
Abstract During the International Polar Year (IPY), comprehensive observational research programs were undertaken to increase our understanding of the Canadian polar cryosphere response to a changing climate. Cryospheric components considered were snow, permafrost, sea ice, freshwater ice, glaciers and ice shelves. Enhancement of conventional

Climates of the Earth and Cryosphere Evolution [PDF]

Surveys in Geophysics, 2011
The interrelationship between the cryosphere and the climate is not always operating on Earth over a scale of billions or millions of years. Indeed, most of the time, the Earth is regulated at temperatures such that no ice sheet exists. Nevertheless, it is very fruitful to understand the conditions where and when ice sheets were triggered during the ...

Climate Change Opens Up New Fishing Possibilities for Large‐Scale Trawling Vessels Off West Greenland

Fisheries Oceanography, Volume 34, Issue 5, Page 59-69, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Climate change is transforming marine ecosystems, opening new fishing possibilities for large‐scale trawling vessels in the Arctic. This study investigates the potential for new fishing grounds to emerge in West Greenland. We employed a maximum entropy model to predict fishing suitability based on climatological and time‐invariant variables ...

Ecological Stoichiometry of the Mountain Cryosphere [PDF]

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2019
Roughly 10% of the Earth's surface is permanently covered by glaciers and ice sheets and in mountain ecosystems, this proportion of ice cover is often even higher. From an ecological perspective, ice-dominated ecosystems place harsh controls on life including cold temperature, limited nutrient availability, and often prolonged darkness due to snow ...

Slowdown of Dune Migration in East Asia's Inland Deserts: A 35‐Year Response to Wind Stilling

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 16, 28 August 2025.
Abstract Global terrestrial stilling, the recent decrease in near‐surface wind speeds, has significant environmental impacts, including reduced dust storms and vegetation recovery in East Asia's drylands. However, direct evidence of stilling effects on sand dunes is limited due to the lack of long‐term observational data.

Characterization of the Regional Climate and Large‐Scale Atmospheric Circulation in the Caspian Sea Region During the Last Glacial Maximum

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 130, Issue 16, 28 August 2025.
Abstract The Caspian Sea is the largest inland water body on Earth. Still, this region is often not considered in paleoclimate model analyses. In this study, we examine the climate of the Caspian Sea region during the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) and its driving large‐scale atmospheric circulation using data from two global climate models (AWI‐ESM‐1‐1LR ...

Recent Change—Terrestrial Cryosphere [PDF]

, 2015
This chapter compiles and assesses information on recent and current change within the terrestrial cryosphere of the Baltic Sea drainage basin. Findings are based on long-term observations. Snow cover extent (SCE), duration and amount have shown a widespread decrease although there is large interannual and regional variation.

Synergy of Multiple‐Satellite Measurements to Fill the Gap of Global XCO2

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 130, Issue 16, 28 August 2025.
Abstract Accurate monitoring of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) concentrations is essential for understanding the global carbon cycle. Satellite remote sensing enables global‐scale CO2 monitoring, providing column‐averaged dry air mole fractions of CO2 (XCO2).
