A 40-y record reveals gradual Antarctic sea ice increases followed by decreases at rates far exceeding the rates seen in the Arctic

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2019
Significance A newly completed 40-y record of satellite observations is used to quantify changes in Antarctic sea ice coverage since the late 1970s. Sea ice spreads over vast areas and has major impacts on the rest of the climate system, reflecting solar

Separating direct and indirect effects of rising temperatures on biogenic volatile emissions in the Arctic

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2020
Significance Plants release to the atmosphere reactive gases, so-called volatile organic compounds (VOCs). The release of VOCs from vegetation is temperature-dependent and controlled by vegetation composition because different plant species release a ...

Arctic connectivity: A frugal approach to infrastructural development [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
As the Arctic is heating up, so are efforts to strengthen connectivity within the region, but also to enhance the connections from remote settlements to the global networks of trade as well as sociality. With global interest in the Arctic on the rise, it becomes increasingly relevant to ensure that investments in arctic infrastructure actually serve ...

Sea-level and summer season orbital insolation as drivers of Arctic sea-ice [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
The sea-ice cover of the Arctic Ocean is an important element of the climate and ocean system in the Northern Hemisphere as it impacts albedo, atmospheric pressure regimes, CO2-exchange at the ocean/atmosphere interface as well as the North Atlantic freshwater budget and thermohaline circulation [1].

Following moist intrusions into the Arctic using SHEBA observations in a Lagrangian perspective

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, 2020
Warm and moist air masses are transported into the Arctic from lower latitudes throughout the year. Especially in winter, such moist intrusions (MIs) can trigger cloud formation and surface warming.
