On the measure of sea ice area from sea ice concentration data sets
The measure of sea ice surface variability provides a fundamental information on the climatology of the Arctic region. Sea ice extension is conventionally measured by two parameters, i.e. Sea Ice Extent (SIE) and Sea Ice Area (SIA), both parameters being derived from Sea Ice Concentration (SIC) data sets.

Assimilation of sea surface temperature, sea ice concentration and sea ice drift in a model of the Southern Ocean [PDF]
Current ocean models have relatively large errors and biases in the Southern Ocean. The aim of this study is to provide a reanalysis from 1985 to 2006 assimilating sea surface temperature, sea ice concentration and sea ice drift. In the following it is also shown how surface winds in the Southern Ocean can be improved using sea ice drift estimated from

Classifying the Ice Seasons 1982-2016 Using the Weighted Ice Days Number as a New Winter Severity Characteristic [PDF]
Sea ice is a key climate factor and it restricts considerably the winter navigation in severe seasons on the Baltic Sea. So determining ice conditions severity and describing ice cover behavior at severe seasons are necessary.

Relationship between sea ice concentration and sea ice albedo over Antarctica
Abstract : Sea ice is a key parameter for understanding the climate change in cryosphere. In this study,we investigated the correlation with the factors that influenced change of the sea ice extent. We used the SeaIce Concentration (SIC) from Ocean and Sea Ice Satellite Application Facility (OSI-SAF), and surface albedoprovided by The Satellite ...

On the assimilation of ice velocity and concentration data into large-scale sea ice models [PDF]
Data assimilation into sea ice models designed for climate studies has started about 15 years ago. In most of the studies conducted so far, it is assumed that the improvement brought by the assimilation is straightforward.

Direct determination of the air-sea CO₂ gas transfer velocity in Arctic sea-ice regions [PDF]
The Arctic Ocean is an important sink for atmospheric CO₂. The impact of decreasing sea-ice extent and expanding marginal ice zones on Arctic air-sea CO₂ exchange depends on the rate of gas transfer in the presence of sea ice.

Sensitivity of Arctic warming to sea ice concentration [PDF]
AbstractWe examine the sensitivity of Arctic amplification (AA) to background sea ice concentration (SIC) under greenhouse warming by analyzing the data sets of the historical and Representative Concentration Pathway 8.5 runs of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5.

Sea ice inertial oscillations in the Arctic Basin [PDF]
International audienceAn original method to quantify the amplitude of inertial motion of oceanic and ice drifters, through the introduction of a non-dimensional parameter M defined from a spectral analysis, is presented.

The Ile181Asn variant of human UDP‐xylose synthase (hUXS1), associated with a short‐stature genetic syndrome, has previously been reported as inactive. Our findings demonstrate that Ile181Asn‐hUXS1 retains catalytic activity similar to the wild‐type but exhibits reduced stability, a looser oligomeric state, and an increased tendency to precipitate ...
