Observational evidence of recent change in the northern high-latitude environment
Mark C. Serreze,John Walsh,F. S. Chapin,T. E. Osterkamp,Mark B. Dyurgerov,Vladimir E. Romanovsky,Walter C. Oechel,James H. Morison,Tingjun Zhang,Roger G. Barry +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present asynthesis of these observations, and conclude that roughly half of the pronounced recent rise in Northern Hemispherewinter temperatures reflects shifts in atmosphericcirculation. But, such changes are not consistent with anthropogenic forcing and include generally positive phases of the North Atlantic and ArcticOscillations and extratropical responses to the El-NinoSouthern Oscillation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lindsey,Robert Pinkel,W. Scott Pegau,Timothy P. Stanton,Thomas C. Grenfeld +27 more
TL;DR: The Surface Heat Budget of the Arctic Ocean (SHEBA) project as discussed by the authors collected ocean, ice, and atmospheric datasets over a full annual cycle that could be used to understand the processes controlling surface heat exchanges.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Ice, Cloud, and land Elevation Satellite-2 (ICESat-2): Science requirements, concept, and implementation

Schutz,Benjamin Smith,Yuekui Yang,Yuekui Yang,Jay Zwally +25 more
TL;DR: The ICESat-2 mission is a follow-on to the ICES-1 mission with three pairs of beams, each pair separated by about 3 km cross-track with a pair spacing of 90 m as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Greater role for Atlantic inflows on sea-ice loss in the Eurasian Basin of the Arctic Ocean
Igor V. Polyakov,Andrey V. Pnyushkov,Matthew B. Alkire,Igor Ashik,Till Baumann,Eddy C. Carmack,Ilona Goszczko,John D. Guthrie,Vladimir Ivanov,Vladimir Ivanov,Torsten Kanzow,Torsten Kanzow,Richard A. Krishfield,Ron Kwok,Arild Sundfjord,James H. Morison,Robert Rember,Alexander Yulin +17 more
TL;DR: It is shown that recent ice reductions, weakening of the halocline, and shoaling of the intermediate-depth Atlantic Water layer in the eastern Eurasian Basin have increased winter ventilation in the ocean interior, making this region structurally similar to that of the western Eurasian basin.
Journal ArticleDOI
Circulation of summer Pacific halocline water in the Arctic Ocean
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present an analysis of Arctic Ocean hydrographic and sea ice observations from the 1990s, with a focus on the circulation of water that originates in the North Pacific Ocean.
