TLDR
In this paper, a one-dimensional thermodynamic model of sea ice is presented that includes the effects of snow cover, ice salinity, and internal heating due to penetration of solar radiation.
Abstract
A one-dimensional thermodynamic model of sea ice is presented that includes the effects of snow cover, ice salinity, and internal heating due to penetration of solar radiation. The incoming radiative and turbulent fluxes, oceanic heat flux, ice salinity, snow accumulation, and surface albedo are specified as functions of time. The model is applied to the central Arctic.

State Estimation of the Stefan PDE: A Tutorial on Design and Applications to Polar Ice and Batteries

TL;DR: In this paper, a state estimation method based on Partial Differential Equation (PDE) backstepping for the Stefan system, using measurements only at the moving boundary, is presented.

Active modulation of Hydrogen bonding by sericin enhances cryopreservation outcomes

TL;DR: This analytical study provides a basis for designing better cryoprotectants with lower thermophysical injury and higher cellular yields and indicates significant improvement in post-thaw viability when sericin is used as an additive to DMSO based formulations.

External forcing and local response

TL;DR: In this article , the authors discuss the relationship between sea ice, its structure, its formation, growth and melting, its thermodynamic and mechanical properties, and its interactions with the underlying water column.

Seasonal evolution of the Arctic sea ice thickness distribution

TL;DR: In this paper , Thorndike et al. extended this approach to include open water by formulating a new boundary condition for their Fokker-Planck equation, which is then coupled to the observationally consistent sea-ice growth model of Semtner.

On the mass and heat budget of arctic sea ice

TL;DR: In this article, the authors show that during the summer seasons 1957 and 1958, an amount of 19.2 and 41.4 g/cm2 was lost by surface ablation on elevated dry surface and in meltwater ponds, respectively.
