Toward Quantifying the Increasing Role of Oceanic Heat in Sea Ice Loss in the New Arctic

Creator:

Carmack, E., Polyakov, I., Padman, L., Fer, I., Hunke, E., Hutchings, J., Jackson, J., Kelley, D., Kwok, R., Layton, C., Melling, H., Perovich, D., Persson, O., Ruddick, B., Timmermans, M., Toole, J., Ross, T., Vavrus, S., and Winsor, P.

Abstract:

The loss of Arctic sea ice has emerged as a leading signal of global warming. This, together with acknowledged impacts on other components of the Earth system, has led to the term “the new Arctic.” Global coupled climate models predict that ice loss will continue through the twenty-first century, with...

Simulation of melt pond evolution on level ice

Creator:

Skyllingstad, Eric D., Paulson, Clayton A., and Perovich, Donald K.

Abstract:

A melt pond model is presented that predicts pond size and depth changes, given an initial ice thickness field and representative surface fluxes. The model is based on the assumption that as sea ice melts, fresh water builds up in the ice pore space and eventually saturates the ice. Under...
