Glacioclimatological investigations of the Institute of Geography, RAS, in the crater of Eastern Summit of Mt. Elbrus in 2020

Лëд и снег, 2021
During the field campaign in August 18–30, 2020 the meteorological regime and heat balance of the glacier surface were investigated in the crater of Mt Elbrus Eastern Summit (5600 m a.s.l.) together with the GPR measurements of the ice thickness and ...

Multidisciplinary Constraints on the Thermal‐Chemical Boundary Between Earth's Core and Mantle

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2022
Heat flux from the core to the mantle provides driving energy for mantle convection thus powering plate tectonics, and contributes a significant fraction of the geothermal heat budget.

Long-Time Variation and Mechanism of Surface Energy Budget Over Diverse Geographical Regions in Pakistan

IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2022
Earth's energy budget is a major force that drives global climate. The long-term pattern of land surface energy budget with pronounced biophysical effects on climate was normally ignored at a regional scale, particularly in Pakistan.

Assessing the Influence of Water Constituents on the Radiative Heating of Laptev Sea Shelf Waters

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2019
The presence of optically active water constituents is known to attenuate the light penetration in the ocean and impact the ocean heat content. Here, we investigate the influence of colored dissolved organic matter (CDOM) and total suspended matter (TSM)

The Summer Surface Energy Budget of the Ice-Free Area of Northern James Ross Island and Its Impact on the Ground Thermal Regime

Atmosphere, 2020
Despite the key role of the surface energy budget in the global climate system, such investigations are rare in Antarctica. In this study, the surface energy budget measurements from the largest ice-free area on northern James Ross Island, in Antarctica,

On the effects of the timing of an intense cyclone on summertime sea-ice evolution in the Arctic

Annals of Glaciology
This study investigates the impacts of the timing of an extreme cyclone that occurred in August 2012 on the sea-ice volume evolution based on the Arctic Ice Ocean Prediction System (ArcIOPS).

Quantifying the thermodynamic entropy budget of the land surface: is this useful? [PDF]

Earth System Dynamics, 2011
As a system is moved away from a state of thermodynamic equilibrium, spatial and temporal heterogeneity is induced. A possible methodology to assess these impacts is to examine the thermodynamic entropy budget and assess the role of entropy production ...

A Thermal Regime and a Water Circulation in a Very Deep Lake: Lake Tazawa, Japan

Hydrology
A thermal system in the very deep Lake Tazawa (maximum depth, 423 m) was investigated by estimating the heat budget. In the heat budget estimate, the net heat input at the lake’s surface and the heat input by river inflow and groundwater inflow were ...

Regional Structure in the Marine Heat Wave of Summer 2015 Off the Western United States

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2019
One of the largest warm water anomalies (marine heat waves [MHWs]) ever recorded occurred in the northeast Pacific during 2014–2016. This MHW was caused by large-scale atmospheric ridging and affected fisheries and ecosystems from Alaska through ...

Upper Ocean Responses to Tropical Cyclone Mekunu (2018) in the Arabian Sea

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
Based on Argo observations and a coupled atmosphere–ocean–wave model, the upper ocean responses to the tropical cyclone (TC) Mekunu (2018) were investigated, and the role of a pre-existing cold eddy in modulating the temperature response to TC Mekunu was
