Wind Transport of Snow Impacts Ka- and Ku-band Radar Signatures on Arctic Sea Ice

Marc Schneebeli Zeugin, David Nicholas Wagner

Wind transport alters the snow topography and microstructure on sea ice through snow redistribution controlled by deposition and erosion. The impact of these processes on radar signatures is poorly understood. Here, we examine the effects of snow redistrib ...

Data from the Multidisciplinary drifting Observatory for the Study of Arctic Climate (MOSAiC) expedition allowed us to investigate the temporal dynamics of snowfall, snow accumulation and erosion in great detail for almost the whole accumulation season (No ...

Overview of the MOSAiC expedition—Atmosphere

Julia Schmale, Ivo Fabio Beck, Radiance Flore Aurore Calmer, Michael Lonardi, Hélène Paule Angot, Markus Frey, Thomas Krumpen

With the Arctic rapidly changing, the needs to observe, understand, and model the changes are essential. To support these needs, an annual cycle of observations of atmospheric properties, processes, and interactions were made while drifting with the sea ic ...

Measurements of Atmospheric Variability during the Multidisciplinary drifting Observatory for the Study of Arctic Climate (MOSAiC) Expedition

Julia Schmale

The MOSAiC expedition was designed to better understand the local and remote processes influencing the Arctic climate system. The Arctic is warming two to three times faster than the global average, a process known as Arctic amplification. One of the most ...

Introducing CRYOWRF v1.0: Multiscale atmospheric flow simulations with advanced snow cover modelling

Varun Sharma, Franziska Gerber

Accurately simulating snow-cover dynamics and the snow-atmosphere coupling is of major importance for topics as wide-ranging as water resources, natural hazards and climate change impacts with consequences for sea-level rise. We present a new modelling fra ...

In late winter, solar radiation is the main driver of water motion in ice-covered lakes. The resulting circulation and mixing determine the spatial distribution of heat within the lake and affect the heat budget of the ice cover. Although under-ice lake wa ...

Evolution and spatial variability of small-scale surface roughness of snow and sea ice during MOSAiC

Michael Lehning, Marc Schneebeli Zeugin, Dávid Wágner, David Nicholas Wagner

Small-scale surface roughness (on an area of about 0.5 m x 0.5 m) affects remote sensing retrieval algorithms and radiative transfer models, yet data of snow and ice surface roughness over sea ice is scarce. Microwave emissivity, important for satellite re ...

The remoteness and extreme conditions of the Arctic make it a very difficult environment to investigate. In these regions, the wind has a substantial effect and redistributes a large part of the snow which complicates precipitation estimates. Moreover, the ...

Sea ice is an important component of the global climate system. The presence of a snowpack covering sea ice can strongly modify the thermodynamic behavior of the sea ice, due to the low thermal conductivity and high albedo of snow. The snowpack can be stra ...
