Circumpolar Influences on the Weddell Sea: Indication of an Antarctic Circumpolar Coastal Wave
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Antarctic circumpolar wave is now a well-known feature that can be detected in atmospheric, oceanic mixed layer, and sea-ice data. In this coupled ice?ocean model driven by 40 yr of daily atmospheric forcing data, it ...
Formation and Maintenance of a Polynya in the Weddell Sea
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A dynamic?thermodynamic sea ice?mixed layer model for the Weddell Sea is complemented by a simple, diagnostic model to account for local sea ice?atmosphere interaction. To consider the atmospheric influence on the oceanic ...
Effects of Stochastic Ice Strength Perturbation on Arctic Finite Element Sea Ice Modeling
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he ice strength parameter P* is a key parameter in dynamic/thermodynamic sea ice models that cannot be measured directly. Stochastically perturbing P* in the Finite Element Sea Ice?Ocean Model (FESOM) of the Alfred Wegener ...
The Fate of the Southern Weddell Sea Continental Shelf in a Warming Climate
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: arm water of open ocean origin on the continental shelf of the Amundsen and Bellingshausen Seas causes the highest basal melt rates reported for Antarctic ice shelves with severe consequences for the ice shelf/ice sheet ...
A Regime Shift on Weddell Sea Continental Shelves with Local and Remote Physical and Biogeochemical Implications is Avoidable in a 2°C Scenario
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Future Projections of Antarctic Ice Shelf Melting Based on CMIP5 Scenarios
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractBasal melting of Antarctic ice shelves is expected to increase during the twenty-first century as the ocean warms, which will have consequences for ice sheet stability and global sea level rise. Here we present ...
