Satellite-retrieved sea ice concentration uncertainty and its effect on modelling wave evolution in marginal ice zones [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2020 Ocean surface waves are known to decay when they interact with sea ice. Wave–ice models implemented in a spectral wave model, e.g. WAVEWATCH III® (WW3), derive the attenuation coefficient based on several different model ice types, i.e.

A persistent and dynamic East Greenland Ice Sheet over the past 7.5 million years [PDF]
, 2016 Climate models show that ice-sheet melt will dominate sea-level rise over the coming centuries, but our understanding of ice-sheet variations before the last interglacial 125,000 years ago remains fragmentary.

Annals of Glaciology, 2020 The Ross Sea is known for showing the greatest sea-ice increase, as observed globally, particularly from 1979 to 2015. However, corresponding changes in sea-ice thickness and production in the Ross Sea are not known, nor how these changes have impacted ...

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

Diversity, 2022 Sea ice is a major driver of biological activity in the Southern Ocean. Its cycle of growth and decay determines life history traits; food web interactions; and populations of many small, ice-associated organisms.

Underwater ice adaptive mapping and reconstruction using autonomous underwater vehicles
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023 The undersides of floating ice shelves and sea ice in the Antarctic and Arctic are among the least accessible environments on Earth. The interactions between ice shelves, sea ice, and the ocean are of considerable scientific interest.

Modeling of the northern hemisphere ice sheets during the last glacial cycle and glaciological sensitivity [PDF]
, 2005 We present a new three-dimensional thermomechanically coupled ice sheet model of the northern hemisphere to reconstruct the Quaternary ice sheets during the last glacial cycle.

Air-ice carbon pathways inferred from a sea ice tank experiment
Elementa: Science of the Anthropocene, 2016 Given rapid sea ice changes in the Arctic Ocean in the context of climate warming, better constraints on the role of sea ice in CO2 cycling are needed to assess the capacity of polar oceans to buffer the rise of atmospheric CO2 concentration. Air-ice CO2

Snow-ice contribution to the structure of sea ice in the Amundsen Sea, Antarctica
Annals of Glaciology, 2020 The widespread occurrence of snow-ice formation on the pack ice plays a critical role in the mass balance of Antarctic sea ice. The stable isotope composition, ice texture and salinity of eight ice cores, obtained from the Amundsen Sea during the Oden ...

The lifetime of excess atmospheric carbon dioxide [PDF]
, 1994 We explore the effects of a changing terrestrial biosphere on the atmospheric residence time of CO2 using three simple ocean carbon cycle models and a model of global terrestrial carbon cycling.
