RISA Simple Coupled Atmosphere–Ocean–Sea Ice–Land Surface Model for Climate and Paleoclimate Studies
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The authors develop a coupled atmosphere?ocean?sea ice?land surface model for long-term climate change studies that incorporates the seasonal cycle. Three ocean basins, the Antarctic Circumpolar Current region, and the ...
Rapid Decline of Total Antarctic Sea Ice Extent during 2014–16 Controlled by Wind-Driven Sea Ice Drift
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractBetween 2014 and 2016 the annual mean total extent of Antarctic sea ice decreased by a record, unprecedented amount of 1.6 ? 106 km2, the largest in a record starting in the late 1970s. The mechanisms behind such ...
Vertical Modification on Depth-Integrated Ice Shelf Water Plume Modeling Based on an Equilibrium Vertical Profile of Suspended Frazil Ice Concentration
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe ice shelf water (ISW) plume is a prevalent phenomenon at the base of an ice shelf or sea ice adjacent to the ice shelf front. Such plumes may become supercooled and deposit marine ice when they rise. In the ...
Mean, Variability, and Trend of Southern Ocean Wind Stress: Role of Wind Fluctuations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe Southern Ocean (SO) surface westerly wind stress plays a fundamental role in driving the Antarctic Circumpolar Current and the global meridional overturning circulation. Here, the authors investigate the ...
