TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the response of the Arctic Ocean to annual and longer-period changes in the North Atlantic oscillation (NAO), focusing on the winter season when the forcing is maximal and on the postwar period.

TL;DR: The Arctic has warmed more than twice as fast as the global average since the late twentieth century, a phenomenon known as Arctic amplification (AA), and progress has been made in understanding the mechanisms that link it to midlatitude weather variability as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: In this paper, a coupled ice-ocean model of the pan-Arctic region is configured at a 1/12° and 45-level grid and integrated for 7 decades using a combination of daily-averaged 1979-2001 European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts data.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that physically motivated changes in the ridging scheme can reduce the likelihood of abrupt strength changes and improve stability in high-resolution (∼10 km) sea ice models.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors argue that it is critical to advance hierarchical regional climate modeling and coordinate it with the design of an integrated Arctic observing system to constrain models to better understand the past and present states and estimate future trajectories of Arctic sea ice and climate.
