Improving the spatial distribution of modeled Arctic sea ice thickness
[1] The spatial distribution of ice thickness/draft in the Arctic Ocean is examined using a sea ice model. A comparison of model predictions with submarine observations of sea ice draft made during cruises between 1987 and 1997 reveals that the model has the same deficiencies found in previous studies, namely ice that is too thick in the Beaufort Sea and too thin near the North Pole. We find th...
متن کاملModeling sea ice thickness
In this paper, we present a self contained review on the modeling of sea ice thickness distribution. This is an important quantity arising and contributing to global climate changes. We present the various pde describing it, which are strongly non linear. Detailed mathematical analysis will be reported elsewhere. The utility of this quantity is of course to set up a global analysis of sea, ice ...
متن کاملSea-Ice Thickness Measurement:
Helicopter-borne electromagnetic (HEM) induction systems provide a means to measure sea ice thickness along flight paths covering a large area in a short period of time, and make the data available in real-time for incorporation into operational ice charts. Ice surface elevation profiles are also collected with a laser altimeter contained in the system. With the introduction of the fix-mounted ...
متن کاملTheory of the Sea Ice Thickness Distribution.
We use concepts from statistical physics to transform the original evolution equation for the sea ice thickness distribution g(h) from Thorndike et al. into a Fokker-Planck-like conservation law. The steady solution is g(h)=N(q)h(q)e(-h/H), where q and H are expressible in terms of moments over the transition probabilities between thickness categories. The solution exhibits the functional form ...
متن کاملA sea-ice thickness retrieval model for 1.4 GHz radiometry and application to airborne measurements over low salinity sea-ice
In preparation for the European Space Agency’s (ESA) Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity (SMOS) mission, we investigated the potential of L-band (1.4 GHz) radiometry to measure sea-ice thickness. Sea-ice brightness temperature was measured at 1.4 GHz and ice thickness was measured along nearly coincident flight tracks during the SMOS Sea-Ice campaign in the Bay of Bothnia in March 2007. A research...
