Calculation of Fatigue Life of Bow Frame of ARAON Considering Navigating in Ice and Open Waters
한국해양공학회지, 2018 Ice-going ships such as icebreakers, icebreaking tankers, and icebreaking LNG carriers are subjected to wave loads in open water and ice loads in ice-covered water. In terms of the ship’s structural design, the local ice load is important.

Estimation of local ice load by analyzing shear strain data from the IBRV ARAON's 2016 Arctic voyage
International Journal of Naval Architecture and Ocean Engineering, 2018 The icebreaking research vessel ARAON performed ice field tests during her 2016 Arctic voyage. The ship is subjected to ice loads through ice–ship interaction processes.

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 6, Issue 2, April–June 2025.This case study explores how new AI‐driven sea ice forecasts can support Arctic wildlife conservation. Focusing on the waterways south of Victoria Island (Nunavut, Canada), we show that predicting freeze‐up dates could help anticipate Dolphin and Union caribou sea ice crossing times weeks in advance.

Distribution of Arnoux's beaked whales (Berardius arnuxii)
Marine Mammal Science, Volume 41, Issue 1, January 2025.Abstract Arnoux's beaked whales (Berardius arnuxii) are generally considered to be uncommon to rare, and likely to prefer deep oceanic waters of the Southern Hemisphere. During many top‐predator surveys in the Southern Ocean since 1988 we did not sight the species.

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 129, Issue 12, December 2024.Abstract Land‐fast sea‐ice (fast ice) in McMurdo Sound grows through heat loss to the atmosphere and through heat loss to the ocean due to the presence of supercooled water. In this paper, we present a fast‐ice thickness data set covering 1986–2022, providing a baseline of interannual variability in fast‐ice thickness.

Eos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1990 The U.S. Antarctic Program will have a new ship for working in polar waters by early 1992. It will be the first U.S. ship with icebreaking capability dedicated to scientific research. The Polar Duke, currently leased by the National Science Foundation, which manages the program, is ice‐strengthened but cannot break ice.NSF announced in February that an
