Hi Bluesky! We have a paper out today in The Cryosphere: doi.org/10.5194/tc-1... about Antarctic sea ice trends in observations and climate models (+huge thanks to co-authors, not on BlueSky) (thread: 1/6)
Brief communication: New perspectives on the skill of modelled sea ice trends in light of recent Antarctic sea ice loss
Abstract. Most climate models do not reproduce the 1979–2014 increase in Antarctic sea ice cover. This was a contributing factor in successive Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change reports allocat...

I heard this is the spot for papers? 🤩 For sea-ice & mixed-layer enthusiasts 🌊❄️ our new paper is here: doi.org/10.1175/JPO-...! It reveals upper-ocean evolution in the Amundsen Sea Polynya during austral autumn, highlighting advection's key role in ice formation. Take a look!
Upper-ocean processes and sea ice production in the southeastern Amundsen Sea Polynya in austral autumn
Abstract The mixed layer of polynyas is vital for local climate as it determines the exchange of properties and energy between ocean, sea ice and atmosphere. However, its evolution is poorly understoo...
