Drift-aware sea ice thickness maps from satellite remote sensing [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere
The standard approach to deriving gridded sea ice thickness (SIT) from satellite altimeters is to aggregate the original along-track SIT estimates over a 1-month period to achieve sufficient coverage across the Arctic.

Sea ice drift in the Southern Ocean: Regional patterns, variability, and trends

open access: yesElementa: Science of the Anthropocene, 2017
Understanding long-term changes in large-scale sea ice drift in the Southern Ocean is of considerable interest given its contribution to ice extent, to ice production in open waters, with associated dense water formation and heat flux to the atmosphere ...

Ice condensation as a planet formation mechanism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We show that condensation is an efficient particle growth mechanism, leading to growth beyond decimeter-sized pebbles close to an ice line in protoplanetary discs. As coagulation of dust particles is frustrated by bouncing and fragmentation, condensation

Barents Sea drift ice characteristics

open access: yesPolar Research, 1991
A short review of the ice field characteristics in the Barents Sea is given. A digitised ice distribution data set covering the period 1966-88 has been used to calculate the probability distribution of sea ice and temporal trends. The ice-covered area between 68 and 83°N and 10 and 55°E at the end of the melting season is found to have been reduced by ...

Simulations with the sea ice model CICE documenting the impact of improved sea ice physics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Sea ice thickness data (CryoSat-2) have been used to identify and correct shortcomings in simulating winter ice growth in the widely used sea ice model CICE.

Spring 2021 sea ice transport in the southern Beaufort Sea occurred during coastal-lead opening events [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere
Winds blew a record large portion of the Arctic's multiyear sea ice (MYI) into the southern Beaufort Sea (SBS) in winter 2021. From early March, a network of buoys from the Sea Ice Dynamic Experiment (SIDEx) tracked the MYI as it drifted across the SBS ...

Mechanisms of fast-ice development in the south-eastern Laptev Sea: a case study for winter of 2007/08 and 2009/10 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Accurate representation of fast ice in numerical models is important for realistic simulation of numerous sea-ice and ocean variables. In order to simulate seasonal and interannual variability of fast-ice extent, the mechanisms controlling fast-ice ...

Auf dünnem Eis? Eisdickenänderungen im Nordpolarmeer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
While the summer sea ice extent has beendecreasing in the Artic by 8% per decade for the past 30 years,the ice extent has actually increased slightlyin the Antarctic. Ice thickness changes are less well known. In the central Arctic, sea ice thinned by 43%

Expedition 302 summary [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The first scientific drilling expedition to the central Arctic Ocean was completed in September 2004. Integrated Ocean Drilling Program Expedition 302, Arctic Coring Expedition (ACEX), recovered sediment cores to 428 meters below seafloor (mbsf) in water

Agreement and Complementarity of Sea Ice Drift Products [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2016
Changes in Arctic sea ice have raised questions about changes in sea ice drift patterns. Reduced sea ice coverage may open up the Arctic to further exploration of maritime activities, particularly during the summer months. Given such changes, it is important to investigate differences between available sea ice drift products.
