Dynamic–Thermodynamic Sea Ice Model: Ridging and Its Application to Climate Study and Navigation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A dynamic?thermodynamic sea ice model with the ocean mixed layer forced by atmospheric data is used to investigate spatial and long-term variability of the sea ice cover in the Arctic basin. The model satisfactorily ...
Effect of Wind Speed and Leads on Clear-Sky Cooling over Arctic Sea Ice during Polar Night
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractA simple analytical model of the atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) coupled to sea ice is presented. It describes clear-sky cooling over sea ice during polar night in the presence of leads. The model solutions show ...
Advancing Polar Prediction Capabilities on Daily to Seasonal Time Scales
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he polar regions have been attracting more and more attention in recent years, fueled by the perceptible impacts of anthropogenic climate change. Polar climate change provides new opportunities, such as shorter shipping ...
Surface Heat Budget of the Arctic Ocean
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A summary is presented of the Surface Heat Budget of the Arctic Ocean (SHEBA) project, with a focus on the field experiment that was conducted from October 1997 to October 1998. The primary objective of the field work was ...
International Arctic Systems for Observing the Atmosphere: An International Polar Year Legacy Consortium
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: nternational Arctic Systems for Observing the Atmosphere (IASOA) activities and partnerships were initiated as a part of the 2007?09 International Polar Year (IPY) and are expected to continue for many decades as a legacy ...
