متن کاملIterative Estimation of Antarctic Sea Ice Extent Using SeaWinds Data
Polar sea ice extent is an important input to global climate models and is considered to be a sensitive indicator of climate change. An algorithm has previously been developed for sea ice extent detection using data from the NASA scatterometer (NSCAT). This paper discusses the extension of that algorithm to data from SeaWinds on QuikSCAT. Due to differences in the two instruments, several modif...
متن کاملCan natural variability explain observed Antarctic sea ice trends? New modeling evidence from CMIP5
[1] The recent observed positive trends in total Antarctic sea ice extent are at odds with the expectation of melting sea ice in a warming world. More problematic yet, climate models indicate that sea ice should decrease around Antarctica in response to both increasing greenhouse gases and stratospheric ozone depletion. The resolution of this puzzle, we suggest, may lie in the large natural var...
متن کاملAntarctic Sea Ice Extent Variability and Its Global Connectivity
This study statistically evaluates the relationship between Antarctic Sea Ice extent and global climate variability. Temporal cross-correlations between detrended Antarctic sea ice edge (SIE) anomaly and various climate indices are calculated. For the sea surface temperature (SST) in the eastern equatorial Pacific and tropical Indian Ocean, as well as the tropical Pacific precipitation, a coher...
