How Sea Ice Drift Influences Sea Ice Area and Volume [PDF]
AbstractEquatorward sea ice drift can have competing impacts on the sea ice cover. On one hand, as ice reaches warmer waters it will be subject to faster melt. On the other hand, the ice near the pole will thin, causing faster ice growth when air temperatures are below freezing.

Opportunistic evaluation of modelled sea ice drift using passively drifting telemetry collars in Hudson Bay, Canada [PDF]
Sea ice drift plays a central role in the Arctic climate and ecology through its effects on the ice cover, thermodynamics, and energetics of northern marine ecosystems. Due to the challenges of accessing the Arctic, remote sensing has been used to obtain

Ice Drift in the Arctic Ocean [PDF]
Abstract The paper presents results of research based on analysis of historical and present studies of the Arctic ice drift. Current information about Arctic ice drift comes from the scientific expedition organized by the Alfred-Wrgener-Institut Helmholtz Centre for Polar and Marine Research (AWI) from Bremerhaven (Germany) in the Arctic

Ice formation and growth shape bacterial community structure in Baltic Sea drift ice.
Drift ice, open water and under-ice water bacterial communities covering several developmental stages from open water to thick ice were studied in the northern Baltic Sea.

A novel method for tracking structural changes in gels using widely accessible microcomputed tomography is presented and validated for various hydro‐, alco‐, and aerogels. The core idea of the method is to track positions of micrometer‐sized tracer particles entrapped in the gel and relate them to the density of the gel network.

X-Band Interferometric SAR Observations of Baltic Fast Ice [PDF]
Detailed mapping of fast-ice deformation can be used to characterize the rheological behavior of fast ice and subsequently improve sea ice modeling. This study uses interferometric synthetic aperture radar to map fast-ice deformation with unprecedented ...

Sea ice drift off Queen Maud Land, Antarctica
Characteristics of sea ice drift off Queen Maud Land are described on the basis of the Argos buoy deployed on the ice floe in the pack ice region off Syowa Station on February 20,1992. The drift of the buoy is consistently westward with some variability.

A contrast in sea ice drift and deformation between winter and spring of 2019 in the Antarctic marginal ice zone [PDF]
Two ensembles of buoys, deployed in the marginal ice zone (MIZ) of the north-eastern Weddell Sea region of the Southern Ocean, are analysed to characterise the dynamics driving sea ice drift and deformation during the winter-growth and the spring-retreat

Calibration of sea ice drift forecasts using random forest algorithms [PDF]
Developing accurate sea ice drift forecasts is essential to support the decision-making of maritime end-users operating in the Arctic. In this study, two calibration methods have been developed for improving 10 d sea ice drift forecasts from an ...

Nonextensive Dynamics of Drifting Sea Ice [PDF]
Cycles of ice pack fragmentation in the Arctic Ocean are caused by the irregular drift dynamics. In February 2004, the Russian ice-research camp North Pole 32 established on a floe in the Arctic Ocean ceased its working activity and was abandoned after a catastrophic icequake. In this communication, the data collected during the last month of the field
