Moderate-resolution optical imagery holds great potential in deriving Arctic sea ice drift fields
because of its higher resolution than microwave radiometers and scatterometers, as well as …

Advanced data assimilation (DA) methods, widely used in geophysical and climate studies
to merge observations with numerical models, can improve state estimates and consequent …

We present a sensitivity analysis and discuss the probabilistic forecast capabilities of the
novel sea ice model neXtSIM used in hindcast mode. The study pertains to the response of …

Reliability of oil spill modeling in Arctic waters for response planning and risk assessments
depends on the accuracy of winds, currents, and ice data (cover and drift) used as input. We …

Carbon fiber reinforced composite materials are finding new applications in highly loaded
marine structures such as tidal turbine blades and marine propellers. Such applications …

Process-based numerical models are a useful tool for studying marine ecosystems and
associated biogeochemical processes in ice-covered regions where observations are …

We study the response of the Lagrangian sea ice model neXtSIM to the uncertainty in sea
surface wind and sea ice cohesion. The ice mechanics in neXtSIM are based on a brittle-like …

Sea ice retreat and opening of large, previously ice-covered areas of the Arctic Ocean to
wind and ocean waves is leading to large changes in the sea ice state. The Arctic sea ice …

The scientific investigation of a rapidly changing northern environment leads to research
questions of such intellectual, empirical and logistical complexity—and of such importance …

Recent field observations suggest that the radiative forcing of aerosol and clouds in the
Arctic may be seasonally regulated by the oceanic emissions of the climatically-important …
