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 ...

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 ...

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

Sea ice deformation and thickness in the Western Ross Sea

open access: yes, 2021
<p>Sea ice cover is arguably the longest and best observed climate variable from space, with over four decades of highly reliable daily records of extent in both hemispheres. In Antarctica, a slight positive decadal trend in sea ice cover is driven by changes in the western Ross Sea, where a variation in weather patterns over the wider ...

Satellite-based sea ice thickness changes in the Laptev Sea from 2002 to 2017: comparison to mooring observations

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2020
. The gridded sea ice thickness (SIT) climate data record (CDR) produced by the European Space Agency (ESA) Sea Ice Climate Change Initiative Phase 2 (CCI-2) is the longest available, Arctic-wide SIT record covering the period from 2002 to 2017. SIT data

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 ...

Winter Arctic sea ice thickness from ICESat-2: upgrades to freeboard and snow loading estimates and an assessment of the first three winters of data collection [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2023
NASA's ICESat-2 mission has provided near-continuous, high-resolution estimates of sea ice freeboard across both hemispheres since data collection started in October 2018.

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.

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 ...
