Arctic sea ice thickness, volume, and multiyear ice coverage: losses and coupled variability (1958–2018)

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2018
Large-scale changes in Arctic sea ice thickness, volume and multiyear sea ice (MYI) coverage with available measurements from submarine sonars, satellite altimeters (ICESat and CryoSat-2), and satellite scatterometers are summarized. The submarine record

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 ...

Improving the spatial distribution of modeled Arctic sea ice thickness [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The spatial distribution of ice thickness/draft in the Arctic Ocean is examined using a sea ice model. A comparison of model predictions with submarine observations of sea ice draft made during cruises between 1987 and 1997 reveals that the model has the

Three years of sea ice freeboard, snow depth, and ice thickness of the Weddell Sea from Operation IceBridge and CryoSat-2

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2018
. We examine the variability of sea ice freeboard, snow depth, and ice thickness in three years (2011, 2014, and 2016) of repeat surveys of an IceBridge (OIB) transect across the Weddell Sea.

Contributions of Ice Thickness to the Atmospheric Response From Projected Arctic Sea Ice Loss

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2018
A large ensemble of simulations from a high‐top atmospheric general circulation model are conducted to compare the atmospheric responses from loss of Arctic sea ice thickness and sea ice concentration.

Sea Ice Thickness in the Western Ross Sea

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2020
Using airborne measurements, we provide a first direct glimpse of the sea ice thickness distribution in the western Ross Sea, Antarctica, where the distinguishing sea ice process is the regular occurrence of the Ross Sea, McMurdo Sound, and Terra Nova ...

Thickness distribution of Antarctic sea ice [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 2008
Ship‐based observations are used to describe regional and seasonal changes in the thickness distribution and characteristics of sea ice and snow cover thickness around Antarctica. The data set comprises 23,373 observations collected over more than 2 decades of activity and has been compiled as part of the Scientific Committee on Antarctic Research ...

Unprecedented Arctic sea ice thickness loss and multiyear-ice volume export through Fram Strait during 2010–2011

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2022
The satellite-observed sea ice thickness (SIT) records from 2003 to 2020 identify an extreme SIT loss during 2010–2011. Ice thickness budget analysis demonstrates that the thickness loss was associated with an extraordinarily large multiyear ice (MYI ...

Uncertainties in Arctic sea ice thickness and volume: new estimates and implications for trends [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Sea ice volume has decreased in the last decades, evoked by changes in sea ice area and thickness. Estimates of sea ice area and thickness rely on a number of geophysical parameters which introduce large uncertainties.

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

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2020
. 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 ...
