Arctic sea ice variation in the Northwest Passage in 1979–2017 and its response to surface thermodynamics factors

open access: yesAdvances in Climate Change Research, 2021
Sea ice conditions in the Canadian Arctic Archipelago (CAA) play a key role in the navigation of the Northwest Passage (NWP). Limited by observed sea ice thickness data, the research of temporal and spatial variation of sea ice in the NWP is insufficient.

Evaluation of sea-ice thickness from four reanalyses in the Antarctic Weddell Sea [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2021
Ocean–sea-ice coupled models constrained by various observations provide different ice thickness estimates in the Antarctic. We evaluate contemporary monthly ice thickness from four reanalyses in the Weddell Sea: the German contribution of the project ...

Sea ice thickness and recent Arctic warming [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2017
AbstractThe climatic impact of increased Arctic sea ice loss has received growing attention in the last years. However, little focus has been set on the role of sea ice thickness, although it strongly determines surface heat fluxes. Here ensembles of simulations using the EC‐Earth atmospheric model (Integrated Forecast System) are performed and ...

Assessment of contemporary satellite sea ice thickness products for Arctic sea ice [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2018
Abstract. Advances in remote sensing of sea ice over the past two decades have resulted in a wide variety of satellite-derived sea ice thickness data products becoming publicly available. Selecting the most appropriate product is challenging given end user objectives range from incorporating satellite-derived thickness information in operational ...

Modeled Trends in Antarctic Sea Ice Thickness [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Climate, 2014
Abstract Unlike the rapid sea ice losses reported in the Arctic, satellite observations show an overall increase in Antarctic sea ice concentration over recent decades. However, observations of decadal trends in Antarctic ice thickness, and hence ice volume, do not currently exist.

Spatiotemporal Analysis and Modeling of Sea Ice Growth Rate in Nella Fjord, Antarctica: Based on Observations During the 36th Chinese National Antarctic Research Expedition in 2020

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science, 2022
Obtaining field sea ice data is crucial for the validation and improvement of satellite data and numerical models. During the 36th Chinese National Antarctic Research Expedition, seven field observations covering the whole area were conducted in Nella ...

Tracer Measurements in Growing Sea Ice Support Convective Gravity Drainage Parameterizations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Gravity drainage is the dominant process redistributing solutes in growing sea ice. Modeling gravity drainage is therefore necessary to predict physical and biogeochemical variables in sea ice.

Improving Met Office seasonal predictions of Arctic sea ice using assimilation of CryoSat-2 thickness [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2018
Interest in seasonal predictions of Arctic sea ice has been increasing in recent years owing, primarily, to the sharp reduction in Arctic sea-ice cover observed over the last few decades, a decline that is projected to continue.

Relationships between Arctic sea ice drift and strength modelled by NEMO-LIM3.6 [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2017
Sea ice cover and thickness have substantially decreased in the Arctic Ocean since the beginning of the satellite era. As a result, sea ice strength has been reduced, allowing more deformation and fracturing and leading to increased sea ice drift ...
