Wave propagation in the marginal ice zone: connections and feedback mechanisms within the air–ice–ocean system
J Thomson - … Transactions of the Royal Society A, 2022 - royalsocietypublishing.org
The propagation of ocean surface waves within the marginal ice zone (MIZ) is a defining
phenomenon of this dynamic zone. Over decades of study, a variety of methods have been …

Floes, the marginal ice zone and coupled wave-sea-ice feedbacks
C Horvat - … Transactions of the Royal Society A, 2022 - royalsocietypublishing.org
Marginal ice zones (MIZs) are qualitatively distinct sea-ice-covered areas that play a critical
role in the interaction between the polar oceans and the broader Earth system. MIZ regions …

Record low Antarctic sea ice cover in February 2022
Abstract On 25 February 2022 Antarctic sea ice extent dropped to a satellite‐era record low
level of 1.92× 106 km2, 0.92× 106 km2 below the long‐term mean. The area of sea ice was …

The role of atmospheric rivers in Antarctic sea ice variations
K Liang, J Wang, H Luo, Q Yang - Geophysical Research …, 2023 - Wiley Online Library
Antarctic sea ice variations are affected by moisture and heat from low‐and mid‐latitudes,
more than 90% of which are transported by atmospheric rivers (ARs). This study employs the …
