Sea-ice thickness variability in Storfjorden, Svalbard [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Glaciology, 2011
AbstractResults from electromagnetic induction surveys of sea-ice thickness in Storfjorden, Svalbard, reveal large interannual ice-thickness variations in a region which is typically characterized by a reoccurring polynya. the surveys were performed in March 2003, May 2006 and March 2007 with helicopter- and ship-based sensors.

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.

Snow Property Controls on Modeled Ku-Band Altimeter Estimates of First-Year Sea Ice Thickness: Case Studies From the Canadian and Norwegian Arctic

open access: yesIEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2020
Uncertainty in snow properties impacts the accuracy of Arctic sea ice thickness estimates from radar altimetry. On first-year sea ice (FYI), spatiotemporal variations in snow properties can cause the Ku-band main radar scattering horizon to appear above ...

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]

open access: yesGeoscientific 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 ...

The impact of snow depth, snow density and ice density on sea ice thickness retrieval from satellite radar altimetry: results from the ESA-CCI Sea Ice ECV Project Round Robin Exercise [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2015
We assess different methods and input parameters, namely snow depth, snow density and ice density, used in freeboard-to-thickness conversion of Arctic sea ice. This conversion is an important part of sea ice thickness retrieval from spaceborne altimetry.

Seasonal Evolution of the Arctic Sea Ice Thickness Distribution

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 2023
AbstractThe Thorndike et al. (1975, https://doi.org/10.1029/jc080i033p04501) theory of the ice thickness distribution, g(h), treats the dynamic and thermodynamic aggregate properties of the ice pack in a novel and physically self‐consistent manner.

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.

A New Perspective on Four Decades of Changes in Arctic Sea Ice from Satellite Observations

open access: yesRemote 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,

Sea-ice thickness measurement based on the dispersion of ice swell

open access: yesThe 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 ...

On the timescales and length scales of the Arctic sea ice thickness anomalies: a study based on 14 reanalyses [PDF]

open access: yesThe 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.
