二氧化碳恢复后的北极海冰:对北大西洋天气的影响
北极海冰恢复不完全导致冬季急流向赤道偏移。由于海洋环流起到了额外的驱动作用,北大西洋急流的偏移尤其不确定。
Arctic Sea Ice After CO2 Recovery: Implications for North Atlantic Weather
Incomplete Arctic sea ice recovery results in equatorward-shifted winter jets. The North Atlantic jet shift is particularly uncertain due to the ocean circulation acting as an additional driver.
Thriving Antarctic Ecosystem Revealed by a Departing Iceberg
A quick-calving iceberg gave scientists a rare glimpse into what hides beneath Antarctic ice.
Arctic Ice Is Getting Smoother and Moving Faster
A decrease in pressure ridges over the past 3 decades is making the ice more uniform, with unclear consequences.
Fast Adept Sea Ice Forecasts
Artificial intelligence facilitates an efficient, skillful surrogate of a coupled Arctic sea ice prediction model using generative diffusion.
Another Hot Arctic Year Indicates a New Climate Regime
NOAA’s annual Arctic Report Card illustrates a warmer, wetter, and increasingly wonky Arctic climate.
The Arctic’s Uncertain Future
Over the next century, the Arctic will change and look much different than it does today. Just how different is still unknown.
Heat Moves More Freely Through Warmer Sea Ice Than Scientists Thought
Flowing brines transport heat more effectively than old models showed, potentially changing climate simulations.
Phytoplankton Shield Ice Shelves from Summer Heat
Spring blooms shade Antarctic ice shelves, causing them to melt 7% more slowly than they would if they were surrounded by clear, bloomless waters.
