Abstract:
Arctic sea ice plays a central role in the Earth’s climate. Changes in the sea ice on seasonal-to-interannual timescales impact ecosystems, populations and a growing number of stakeholders. A prerequisite for achieving better sea ice predictions is a better understanding of the underlying mechanisms of sea ice predictability. In the first part, we investigate the seasonal-to-interannual Arctic sea ice predictability in perfect-model experiments performed with six different climate models. Similar pan-Arctic winter sea ice extent (SIE) reemergence is found for HadGEM1.2, GFDL-CM3 and E6F, w

Abstract:
The Arctic sea-ice cover plays an important role for the global climate system. Sea ice and the overlying snow cover reflect up to eight times more of the solar radiation than the underlying ocean. Hence, they are important for the global energy budget, and changes in the sea-ice cover can have a large impact on the Arctic climate and beyond. In the past 36 years the ice cover reduced significantly. The largest decline is observed in September, with a rate of more than 12% per decade. The negative trend is accompanied by large inter-annual sea-ice variability: in September the sea-ice extent v

The mid-Pliocene Warm Period (mPWP, 3.264 to 3.025 Myr ago) has been extensively studied through the use of general circulation models (GCMs). Whilst the output from these simulations replicates closely many of the patterns of the climate of the interval indicated by proxy data, at northern high latitudes the reconstructed proxy data temperatures exceed the model temperatures by over 15˚C for some sites. This data-model discrepancy highlights the importance of focusing on model representation of processes that strongly affect the northern high latitude climates. Arctic sea ice exerts a strong

It develops a sea ice type classification method. The backscatter of first-year and multi-year sea ice are clearly identifiable and are observed to vary seasonally. Using an average of the annual backscatter trends obtained from QuikSCAT, a classification of multi-year ice is obtained which is dependent on

Abstract:
The feedback between clouds and sea ice got more importance in the last years, because of the declining Arctic sea ice extent. Previous observations show the formation of low clouds over newly formed open water. These low clouds are very important for the Arctic Energy Budget, because they warm the surface. This leads to increasing temperatures and stronger sea ice loss. To assess the relationship between sea ice cover and cloudiness, satellite observations by DARDAR were compared with both global climate reanalyses ERA–Interim and MACC. The analysis focuses on 2007 – 2010 and the relationship

Arctic sea ice loss is a robust feature of observations and of climate model projections. Amplified winter lower tropospheric warming in the Arctic relative to the global mean is associated with this ice loss. Many recent studies have addressed the possible effects of these changes on the midlatitude atmospheric circulation, particularly in the North Atlantic. These studies suggest responses including an equatorward jet shift, a negative annular mode response and changes in Rossby wave behaviour. However, there is disagreement on the magnitude, significance and even sign of these responses. Pr

The model is first run with monthly climatology for most of the thermodynamic and dynamic forcing components to obtain a stable periodic seasonal cycle.

It is crucial to observe and understand changes in Arctic sea ice, as it is a major element of the Earth’s climate system.

Arctic sea ice is rapidly declining in extent, thickness, volume and age, with the majority of the decline in extent observed at the end of the melt season. Advanced melt is a thermodynamic regime and is characterized by the formation of melt ponds on the sea ice surface, which have a lower surface albedo (0.2-0.4) than the surrounding ice (0.5-0.7) allowing more shortwave radiation to enter the system.

Abstract:
Characteristic features of the wintertime Arctic Ocean are narrow and elongated fractures in the sea ice cover, up to hundreds of kilometers long and up to tens of kilometers wide, called leads. Leads expose the ocean to the cold atmosphere, establishing air-sea heat fluxes which freeze the oceanic surface. During new sea ice formation, dense and salt-enriched plumes of brine are rejected into the oceanic mixed-layer. Due to brine rejection, lateral density gradients appear at sea ice edges, creating fronts. Fronts store potential energy and are subjected to gravitational overturning. The effe

Abstract:
Declining sea ice area in the Canadian Arctic has gained significant attention with respect to the prospect of increased shipping activities along the Northwest Passage and Arctic Bridge shipping routes. Temporal trend and correlation analysis was performed on sea ice area data for total, first-year ice (FYI), and multi-year ice (MYI), and observed shipping activity within the Vessel Traffic Reporting Arctic Canada Traffic Zone (NORDREG zone) from 1990 to 2012. Relationships between declines in sea ice area and Arctic maritime activity were investigated alongside linkages to warming surface ai
