The early autumn voyage of RV Sikuliaq to the southern Beaufort Sea in 2015 offered very favorable opportunities for observing the properties and thicknesses of frazil‐pancake ice …
Polynyas are key sites of ice production during the winter and are important sites of biological activity and carbon sequestration during the summer. The Amundsen Sea …

Our understanding of cross-disciplinary connections for Antarctica's role in the Earth system remains incomplete, especially around its coastal margins. The focus here is on sea-ice …
This study focused on the analysis of the time variability of the morphology of the Drygalski ice tongue (DIT), Antarctica, using–for the first time–satellite synthetic aperture radar (SAR) …
Mass loss from ice shelves occurs through ocean-driven melting regulated by dynamic and thermodynamic processes in sub-ice shelf cavities. However, the understanding of these …

Precise knowledge of wintertime sea ice production in Arctic polynyas is not only required to enhance our understanding of atmosphere‐sea ice‐ocean interactions but also to verify …
Polynyas, or ice-free regions within the sea ice pack, are a common occurrence around Antarctica. A recurrent and often large polynya is the Terra Nova Bay Polynya (TNBP) …
