An assessment of Antarctic sea-ice thickness in CMIP6 simulations with comparison to the satellite-based observations and reanalyses [PDF]
The CryosphereSea-ice thickness, though critical to our understanding of sea-ice variability, remains relatively understudied compared to surface sea-ice parameters in the Southern Ocean.

Sea-ice evaluation of NEMO-Nordic 1.0: a NEMO–LIM3.6-based ocean–sea-ice model setup for the North Sea and Baltic Sea [PDF]
Geoscientific Model Development, 2017 The Baltic Sea is a seasonally ice-covered marginal sea in northern Europe with intense wintertime ship traffic and a sensitive ecosystem. Understanding and modeling the evolution of the sea-ice pack is important for climate effect studies and ...

A New Perspective on Four Decades of Changes in Arctic Sea Ice from Satellite Observations
Remote Sensing, 2022 Arctic sea ice characteristics have been changing rapidly and significantly in the last few decades. Using a long-term time series of sea ice products from satellite observations—the extended AVHRR Polar Pathfinder (APP-x)—trends in sea ice concentration,

On the timescales and length scales of the Arctic sea ice thickness anomalies: a study based on 14 reanalyses [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2019 The ocean–sea ice reanalyses are one of the main sources of Arctic sea ice thickness data both in terms of spatial and temporal resolution, since observations are still sparse in time and space.

Sea-ice thickness and roughness in the Ross Sea, Antarctica [PDF]
Annals of Glaciology, 2001 AbstractSea-ice thickness and roughness data collected on three cruises in the Ross Sea, Antarctica, showed interseasonal, regional and interannual variability. Variability was reduced to season, or age of ice floe, when sea-ice roughness values from around Antarctica were compared.

The sub-ice platelet layer and its influence on freeboard to thickness conversion of Antarctic sea ice [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2014 This is an investigation to quantify the influence of the sub-ice platelet layer on satellite measurements of total freeboard and their conversion to thickness of Antarctic sea ice. The sub-ice platelet layer forms as a result of the seaward advection of

Sea-ice thickness measurement based on the dispersion of ice swell
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2012 The dispersion of flexural waves propagating in the Arctic sea ice cover is exploited in order to locally measure the ice thickness. The observed dispersion, for waves filtered in the 4–20 s period interval, at up to 4 broad-band seismometers deployed in Spring 2007 near the North Pole, is compared to a parameterized model that accounts for a complex ...
