Greenland Ice Sheet Surface Melt and Its Relation to Daily Atmospheric Conditions
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractMelt area is one of the most reliably monitored variables associated with surface conditions over the full Greenland Ice Sheet (GrIS). Surface melt is also an important indicator of surface mass balance and has ...
Evaluation of the Surface Representation of the Greenland Ice Sheet in a General Circulation Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: imulated surface conditions of the Goddard Earth Observing System model, version 5 (GEOS-5), atmospheric general circulation model (AGCM) are examined for the contemporary Greenland Ice Sheet (GrIS). A surface parameterization ...
Efficient Flowline Simulations of Ice Shelf–Ocean Interactions: Sensitivity Studies with a Fully Coupled Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: hermodynamic flowline and plume models for the ice shelf?ocean system simplify the ice and ocean dynamics sufficiently to allow extensive exploration of parameters affecting ice-sheet stability while including key physical ...
Intercomparison of Surface Temperatures from AIRS, MERRA, and MERRA-2 with NOAA and GC-Net Weather Stations at Summit, Greenland
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe surface skin and air temperatures reported by the Atmospheric Infrared Sounder/Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit-A (AIRS/AMSU-A), the Modern-Era Retrospective Analysis for Research and Applications (MERRA), and ...
