Subseasonal Predictability of Arctic Ocean Sea Ice Conditions: Bering Strait and Ekman-Driven Ocean Heat Transport
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Observations of Seasonal Upwelling and Downwelling in the Beaufort Sea Mediated by Sea Ice
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractWe present observational estimates of Ekman pumping in the Beaufort Gyre region. Averaged over the Canada Basin, the results show a 2003?14 average of 2.3 m yr?1 downward with strong seasonal and interannual ...
On the Feedback of Ice–Ocean Stress Coupling from Geostrophic Currents in an Anticyclonic Wind Regime over the Beaufort Gyre
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Based on analysis of observational data it has been suggested that a negative feedback of ice?ocean stress coupling may limit freshwater accumulation in the Beaufort Gyre (BG). In this paper we explore how this feedback ...
Genesis and Decay of Mesoscale Baroclinic Eddies in the Seasonally Ice-Covered Interior Arctic Ocean
