Simulated Geophysical Noise in Sea Ice Concentration Estimates of Open Water and Snow-Covered Sea Ice

open access: yesIEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2022
Sea ice concentration algorithms using brightness temperatures ($T_{B}$) from satellite microwave radiometers are used to compute sea ice concentration ($c_{\text{ice}}$), sea ice extent, and generate sea ice climate data records. Therefore, it is important to minimize the sensitivity of $c_{\text{ice}}$ estimates to geophysical noise caused by snow ...

Brief communication: The challenge and benefit of using sea ice concentration satellite data products with uncertainty estimates in summer sea ice data assimilation [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2016
Data assimilation experiments that aim at improving summer ice concentration and thickness forecasts in the Arctic are carried out. The data assimilation system used is based on the MIT general circulation model (MITgcm) and a local singular evolutive ...

Analysis of Sea Ice Timing and Navigability along the Arctic Northeast Passage from 2000 to 2019

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021
The ablation of Arctic sea ice makes seasonal navigation possible in the Arctic region, which accounted for the apparent influence of sea ice concentration in the navigation of the Arctic route.

Super Resolution of Arctic Sea Ice Concentration

open access: yes, 2021
Arctic sea ice concentration is often coarsely observed and numerically computed despite its importance for polar climate system. In this work we present three machine-learning methods to recover the original high-resolution images from the coarse-grained low-resolution counterparts.

Machine Learning-Based Image Processing for Ice Concentration during Chukchi and Beaufort Sea Trials

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
Growing interest in finding the optimal route through the arctic ocean, and sea ice concentration is also emerging as a factor to be considered. In this paper, an algorithm to calculate the sea ice concentration was developed based on the images taken ...

Unexpectedly high ultrafine aerosol concentrations above East Antarctic sea-ice [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2015
Abstract. The effect of aerosols on clouds and their radiative properties is one of the largest uncertainties in our understanding of radiative forcing. A recent study has concluded that better characterisation of pristine, natural aerosol processes leads to the largest reduction in these uncertainties.

Arctic Sea Ice Concentration Assimilation in an Operational Global 1/10° Ocean Forecast System

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2023
To understand the Arctic environment, which is closely related to sea ice and to reduce potential risks, reliable sea ice forecasts are indispensable. A practical, lightweight yet effective assimilation scheme of sea ice concentration based on Optimal ...

On the measure of sea ice area from sea ice concentration data sets

open access: yesSPIE Proceedings, 2015
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.

Statistical Modeling of Sea Ice Concentration Using Satellite Imagery and Climate Reanalysis Data in the Barents and Kara Seas, 1979–2012

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2014
Extensive sea ice over Arctic regions is largely involved in heat, moisture, and momentum exchanges between the atmosphere and ocean. Some previous studies have been conducted to develop statistical models for the status of Arctic sea ice and showed ...
