Divergent oxygen trends in ice-covered lakes driven by ice-cover decline and ecological memory. [PDF]
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S ADissolved oxygen (DO) is an essential resource in ice-covered lakes, regulating water quality and biodiversity, including the survival of economically important fish species. Most of the world’s lakes seasonally freeze, often resulting in oxygen depletion as ice cover inhibits water column ventilation and snow cover limits photosynthesis ...

Arctic ice cover, ice thickness and tipping points. [PDF]
Ambio, 2012 We summarize the latest results on the rapid changes that are occurring to Arctic sea ice thickness and extent, the reasons for them, and the methods being used to monitor the changing ice thickness. Arctic sea ice extent had been shrinking at a relatively modest rate of 3-4% per decade (annually averaged) but after 1996 this speeded up to 10% per ...

Assessment of the impact of dam reservoirs on river ice cover – an example from the Carpathians (central Europe) [PDF]
The CryosphereThis paper presents a method for determining the impact of dam reservoirs on the ice cover of rivers downstream of their locations based on a long measurement period (1950–2020) and synthetic-aperture radar (SAR) data.

Influence of winter sea-ice motion on summer ice cover in the Arctic
Polar Research, 2013 Summer sea-ice cover in the Arctic varies largely from year to year owing to several factors. This study examines one such factor, the relationship between interannual difference in winter ice motion and ice area in the following summer.

Factors controlling the bifurcation structure of sea ice retreat [PDF]
, 2012 The contrast in surface albedo between sea ice and open ocean suggests the possibility of an unstable climate state flanked by two separate stable climate states. Previous studies using idealized single-column models and comprehensive climate models have

Influence of transport and ocean ice extent on biogenic aerosol sulfur in the Arctic atmosphere [PDF]
, 2012 The recent decline in sea ice cover in the Arctic Ocean could affect the regional radiative forcing via changes in sea ice-atmosphere exchange of dimethyl sulfide (DMS) and biogenic aerosols formed from its atmospheric oxidation, such as methanesulfonic ...

The impact of Arctic sea ice loss on mid-Holocene climate. [PDF]
, 2018 Mid-Holocene climate was characterized by strong summer solar heating that decreased Arctic sea ice cover. Motivated by recent studies identifying Arctic sea ice loss as a key driver of future climate change, we separate the influences of Arctic sea ice ...

Trends and abrupt changes in 104 years of ice cover and water temperature in a dimictic lake in response to air temperature, wind speed, and water clarity drivers [PDF]
Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2016 The one-dimensional hydrodynamic ice model, DYRESM-WQ-I, was modified to simulate ice cover and thermal structure of dimictic Lake Mendota, Wisconsin, USA, over a continuous 104-year period (1911–2014).
