Variability in spring phytoplankton blooms associated with ice retreat timing in the Pacific Arctic from 2003-2019.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
The Arctic is experiencing rapid changes in sea-ice seasonality and extent, with significant consequences for primary production. With the importance of accurate monitoring of spring phytoplankton dynamics in a changing Arctic, this study further ...

Importance of seasonal and annual layers in controlling backscatter to radar altimeters across the percolation zone of an ice sheet [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Radar altimeters are one of the main tools for measuring elevation changes across the Antarctic and Greenland ice sheets and larger ice caps. A ground-based radar was deployed in autumn 2004 and spring 2006 in the percolation zone of the Greenland Ice ...

PRODEM: an annual series of summer DEMs (2019 through 2022) of the marginal areas of the Greenland Ice Sheet [PDF]

open access: yesEarth System Science Data
Surface topography across the marginal zone of the Greenland Ice Sheet is constantly evolving in response to changing weather, season, climate, and ice dynamics. However, current digital elevation models (DEMs) for the ice sheet are usually based on data

On the deterioration of icebergs in the marginal ice zone [PDF]

open access: yesAtmosphere-Ocean, 1994
Abstract During the Labrador Ice Margin Experiment (LIMEX) of March‐April 1989, the International Ice Patrol (IIP) of the United States Coast Guard deployed two satellite‐tracked TIROS Arctic Drifter (TAD) platforms on two medium‐sized tabular icebergs. The icebergs were drifting in sea ice of about 9/10 concentration east of Newfoundland.

Marginal zone B cells: virtues of innate-like antibody-producing lymphocytes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Protective responses to microorganisms involve the nonspecific but rapid defence mechanisms of the innate immune system, followed by the specific but slow defence mechanisms of the adaptive immune system. Located as sentinels at the interface between the

Marginal ice zone

open access: yesEos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1984
A multidisciplinary team of scientists, including meteorologists, oceanographers, physicists, and biologists from more than 10 countries, are in the process of wrapping up a study of ice packs and their relationship to the environment of the East Greenland Sea.

Modeling the seasonal evolution of the Arctic sea ice floe size distribution

open access: yesElementa: Science of the Anthropocene, 2016
To better simulate the seasonal evolution of sea ice in the Arctic, with particular attention to the marginal ice zone, a sea ice model of the distribution of ice thickness, floe size, and enthalpy was implemented into the Pan-arctic Ice–Ocean Modeling ...

Numerical Study on Wave-Ice Interaction in the Marginal Ice Zone

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020
The effect of waves on ice sheet is critical in the marginal ice zone (MIZ). Waves break large sea ice into small pieces and cause them to collide with each other. Simultaneously, the interaction between sea ice and waves attenuates these waves.

Acoustics of the marginal ice zone [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1981
The marginal sea ice zone is defined as the band around the edge of the Arctic in which the presence of sea ice is seasonal. It extends from the line of minimum ice cover which exists in about September to the maximum extent of ice coverage which happens in about April.

Influence of the thermal сonditions within the bed of the last ice sheet on the distribution of glacial valleys of the Belarusian Poozerie area

open access: yesЖурнал Белорусского государственного университета: География, геология, 2022
Within the bed of the Poozerie (Weichselian) ice sheet, which occupied the northern part of Belarus at the maximum stage and at the beginning of degradation, three concentric thermal zones were identified according to geological and geomorphological ...
