Shifting patterns of life in the Pacific Arctic and sub-Arctic seas.
Recent changes in the timing of sea ice formation and retreat, along with increasing seawater temperatures, are driving shifts in marine species composition that may signal marine ecosystem reorganization in the Pacific Arctic sector. Interannual variability in seasonal sea ice retreat in the northern Bering Sea has been observed over the past decade; north of the Bering Strait, the Chukchi Sea...
متن کاملEvidence linking rapid Arctic warming to mid-latitude weather patterns
The effects of rapid Arctic warming and ice loss on weather patterns in the Northern Hemisphere is a topic of active research, lively scientific debate and high societal impact. The emergence of Arctic amplification--the enhanced sensitivity of high-latitude temperature to global warming--in only the last 10-20 years presents a challenge to identifying statistically robust atmospheric responses...
متن کاملSTRONG SURFACE WINDS AT BIG DELTA , ALASKA An Example of Orographic Influence on Local Weather
The remarkably high frequency of strong surface winds in the region of Big Delta, Alaska, is studied with respect to its cause, characteristics, and local effects. During the winter, the winds are predominantly east-southeast and, unlike glacier or valley winds, are caused by a topographically induced convergence of the flow of air down the Tanana Valley which occurs at times of southeast gradi...
متن کاملTimely Ers Scatterometer Winds for Weather Nowcasting
With the loss of the on-board ERS-2 tape recorders, ESA swiftly developed a new strategy for on-ground data acquisition. Rather than 14 ERS-2 data acquisitions per day, the acquisition rate has more than tripled, allowing data coverage in the North Atlantic and adjacent seas. Acquisition rate and coverage are still increasing. ESA processes all acquisitions independently, allowing user data acc...
متن کاملHeavy metals in aerosols over the seas of the Russian Arctic.
A review of the data on heavy metals in aerosols over the seas of the Russian Arctic is presented. Results of heavy metal studies in aerosols obtained during 11 research expeditions in summer/autumn period from 1991 to 2000, and at Severnaya Zemlya and Wrangel Island in spring, in 1985-1989 are discussed. Concentrations of most heavy metals in the atmosphere in the marine boundary layer in the ...
