Uncertainty in modeled Arctic sea ice volume
250 words) 25 Uncertainty in the Pan-arctic Ice Ocean Modeling and Assimilation System (PIOMAS) 26 Arctic sea ice volume record is characterized. A range of observations and approaches, 27 including in-situ ice thickness measurements, ICESat retrieved ice thickness, and model 28 sensitivity studies, yields a conservative estimate for October Arctic ice volume 29 uncertainty of +/1.35x10 km and ...
متن کاملAlbedo of summer snow on sea ice, Ross Sea, Antarctica
[1] Surface all-wave albedo and physical parameters (grain radius, mass density, surface temperature, and stratification) of an austral summer snow cover on sea ice were measured in the Ross Sea during January-February 1999. It was observed that (1) from north to south the snow surface temperature decreases, albedo increases, snow mass density decreases, snow composite grain radius decreases, a...
متن کاملImproving 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 کاملSatellite-Based Sea Ice Navigation for Prydz Bay, East Antarctica
Sea ice adversely impacts nautical, logistical and scientific missions in polar regions. Ship navigation benefits from up-to-date sea ice analyses at both regional and local scales. This study presents a satellite-based sea ice navigation system (SatSINS) that integrates observations and scientific output from remote sensing and meteorological data to develop optimum marine navigational routes ...
متن کاملIce sheet record of recent sea-ice behavior and polynya variability in the Amundsen Sea, West Antarctica
[1] Our understanding of past sea-ice variability is limited by the short length of satellite and instrumental records. Proxy records can extend these observations but require further development and validation. We compare methanesulfonic acid (MSA) and chloride (Cl) concentrations from a new firn core from coastal West Antarctica with satellite-derived observations of regional sea-ice concentr...
