Sea Ice Drift from GPS Tracker Deployed in the Arctic Ocean [PDF]
Sea ice is monitored on a regular basis by satellite observation; however, image-based drift tracking is imprecise as the time interval forming the image-pair is too large to capture the actual trajectory of ice drift. In this study, drift trajectory and

Rotational drift in Antarctic sea ice: pronounced cyclonic features and differences between data products [PDF]
Sea ice extent variability, a measure based on satellite-derived sea ice concentration measurements, has traditionally been used as an indicator to evaluate the impact of climate change on polar regions.

Non‐Synchronous Rotation on Europa Driven by Ocean Currents
It has been suggested that the ice shell of Jupiter's moon Europa may drift non‐synchronously due to tidal torques. Here we argue that torques applied by the underlying ocean are also important and can result in non‐synchronous rotation.

Interannual sea ice thickness variability in the Bay of Bothnia [PDF]
While variations of Baltic Sea ice extent and thickness have been extensively studied, there is little information about drift ice thickness, distribution, and its variability. In our study, we quantify the interannual variability of sea ice thickness

Atmospheric highs drive asymmetric sea ice drift during lead opening from Point Barrow [PDF]
Throughout winter, the winds of migrating weather systems drive the recurrent opening of sea ice leads from Alaska's northernmost headland, Point Barrow.

Recent wind driven high sea ice area export in the Fram Strait contributes to Arctic sea ice decline [PDF]
Arctic sea ice area has been decreasing for the past two decades. Apart from melting, the southward drift through Fram Strait is the main ice loss mechanism. We present high resolution sea ice drift data across 79° N from 2004 to 2010.

Sea ice drift and arch evolution in the Robeson Channel using the daily coverage of Sentinel-1 SAR data for the 2016–2017 freezing season [PDF]
The Robeson Channel is a narrow sea water passage between Greenland and Ellesmere Island in the Arctic. It is a pathway of sea ice from the central Arctic and out to Baffin Bay.

Sea ice drift is a crucial parameter for sea ice flux, atmospheric and ocean circulation, and ship navigation. Pattern matching is widely used to retrieve sea ice drift from Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) data, but it often yields mismatched vectors and ...

SEA ICE DRIFT MONITORING IN THE BOHAI SEA BASED ON GF4 SATELLITE [PDF]
The Bohai Sea is the inland sea with the highest latitude in China. In winter, the phenomenon of freezing occurs in the Bohai Sea due to frequent cold wave influx.
