Polestar push
She came in from the cold for a two-day spate of press conferences, meetings, and photoshoots, and then sailed off towards the ice again. The German research icebreaker Polarstern, run by the Alfred Wegener Institute (AWI), has become a minor celebrity with the busy lifestyle to match. Upon completing her latest tour of duty, which mainly involved studies of carbon cycles in the southern oceans...
متن کاملShip-based Sea Ice Observations in Lützow-holm Bay, East Antarctica
The authors conducted the extensive ship-based sea ice observations from December 2000 to February 2001 in Lützow-Holm Bay, Antarctica. The authors focused on the observations of sea ice thickness in the land fast ice, which provides fundamental information on the unique growth and decay process of the sea ice in this area. The thickness of ice plus snow was measured using a portable Electro-Ma...
متن کاملTropospheric bromine chemistry: implications for present and pre-industrial ozone and mercury
We present a new model for the global tropospheric chemistry of inorganic bromine (Bry) coupled to oxidant-aerosol chemistry in the GEOS-Chem chemical transport model (CTM). Sources of tropospheric Bry include debromination of sea-salt aerosol, photolysis and oxidation of short-lived bromocarbons, and transport from the stratosphere. Comparison to a GOME-2 satellite climatology of tropospheric ...

In this study, Simpson et al. analyze the spatial and temporal evolution of BrO column densities in the lower troposphere and their vertical profiles as well as the aerosol optical depths and extinction profiles retrieved from three MAX-DOAS instruments deployed at and around Barrow (Utqiagvik) from early March to mid April 2012 during the BROMEX campaign. The analysis is complemented by the 25...
