Deadline for submitting EGU abstract here.

Go to EGU, and if you do, consider submitting to the ice2ice session: «CL4.02/OS1.9 Interactions and feedbacks between land ice, sea ice and ocean in the Arctic». Convened by NBI, DMI and Uib ice2ice participants. Deadline 13th of January.

CL4.02/OS1.9

Interactions and feedbacks between land ice, sea ice and ocean in the Arctic (co-organized)

Convener: Helle Astrid Kjær 
Co-Conveners: Ruth Mottram , Kerim Nisancioglu

Although Arctic sea ice extent and variability of the past 40-50 years is well known, the processes that influence the stability of Arctic sea ice, as well as the stratification of the Arctic ocean, are poorly resolved. At the same time, little is known about past sea ice variability, or how this variability has influenced ice masses such as the Greenland ice sheet.
This session focuses on the interplay and feedbacks between land ice, sea ice and ocean in the polar regions. Sediment records and ice cores can help identify past changes in both land and sea ice, and several new proxies of paleo sea ice extent are under development. Further, the representation of sea ice extent and its variability in coupled climate models is improving and can help us understand the interplay between the ocean, sea ice, atmosphere and land ice.
In this interdisciplinary session hosted by the ERC SyG project ice2ice we invite contributions from scientists working in the field of Arctic ocean, atmosphere an cryosphere to discuss past, present and future sea ice variability and their implications for climate as well as the mass balance of land based ice sheets.

Other relevant sessions are eg:

  • 01/OS1.17: Sea icein the past: proxies, models and climate feedbacks
  • 03/CR1.11/OS1.15: Processes and Impacts of climate change in the Arctic realm: from past to future
  • 3: Reconstructing paleo ice dynamics: Comparing and combining field-based evidence and numerical modeling
  • 1/OS1.25: Rapid changes in sea ice: processes and implications
  • 2: Changes in the Arctic Ocean andSea Ice System: Observations, Models and Perspectives
  • 10: Atlantic water in the main gateways to the Arctic Ocean – impact on climate, sea ice, tidewater glaciers and ecosystem
