Sea-ice indicators of polar bear habitat [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2016
Nineteen subpopulations of polar bears (Ursus maritimus) are found throughout the circumpolar Arctic, and in all regions they depend on sea ice as a platform for traveling, hunting, and breeding.

Assessment of Antarctic Sea Ice Cover in CMIP6 Prediction with Comparison to AMSR2 during 2015–2021

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2023
A comprehensive assessment of Antarctic sea ice cover prediction is conducted for twelve CMIP6 models under the scenario of SSP2-4.5, with a comparison to the observed data from the Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer 2 (AMSR2) during 2015–2021.

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.

Developing a deep learning forecasting system for short-term and high-resolution prediction of sea ice concentration [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere
There has been a steady increase in marine activity throughout the Arctic Ocean during the last few decades, and maritime end users are requesting skilful high-resolution sea ice forecasts to ensure operational safety. Different studies have demonstrated

New insight from CryoSat-2 sea ice thickness for sea ice modelling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Estimates of Arctic sea ice thickness are available from the CryoSat-2 (CS2) radar altimetry mission during ice growth seasons since 2010. We derive the sub-grid scale ice thickness distribution (ITD) with respect to 5 ice thickness categories used in a ...

Simple Hybrid Sea Ice Nudging Method for Improving Control Over Partitioning of Sea Ice Concentration and Thickness

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2022
AbstractTo assess the effect of ocean‐atmosphere coupling in the climate response to forced sea ice loss, the Polar Amplification Model Intercomparison Project protocol includes centennial coupled atmosphere‐ocean general circulation model simulations with imposed sea ice loss.

Valosin‐containing protein counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its ATPase activity in vitro

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Biomolecular condensates formed by fused in sarcoma (FUS) are dissolved by high ATP concentrations yet persist in cells. Using a reconstituted system, we demonstrate that valosin‐containing protein (VCP), an AAA+ ATPase, counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its D2 ATPase activity.

Study of the impact of ice formation in leads upon the sea ice pack mass balance using a new frazil and grease ice parameterisation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Leads are cracks in sea ice that often form due to deformation. During winter months leads expose the ocean to the cold atmosphere resulting in supercooling and the formation of frazil ice crystals within the mixed layer.

Hyperosmotic stress induces PARP1‐mediated HPF1‐dependent mono(ADP‐ribosyl)ation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Sorbitol‐induced hyperosmotic stress rapidly induces reversible mono(ADP‐ribosyl)ation (MARylation) on PARP1 without the signs of genotoxic signaling. We show that PARP1 autoMARylation is HPF1 dependent and forms hydroxylamine‐resistant O‐glycosidic linkages.

Evaluation of the ArcIOPS sea ice forecasts during 2021–2023

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science
The operational sea ice forecasts from the Arctic Ice Ocean Prediction System (ArcIOPS) during 2021–2023 are validated against satellite-retrieved sea ice concentration and drift data, in situ and reanalyzed sea ice thickness data.
