ANTARCTIC SEA ICE: CHALLENGES & TRENDS
http://acecrc.org.au/news/antarctic-sea-ice-challenges-trends
Antarctic climate and ecosystems cooperative research centre. ANTARCTIC SEA ICE: CHALLENGES & TRENDS. It’s the ongoing paradox: as the world continues to warm, sea ice extent around Antarctica is gradually increasing. In parts of Antarctica, changes in sea ice distribution are impacting shipping operations and the delivery of scientists, support personnel and supplies to Antarctic bases. The forces driving these changes are complex but increasingly well understood. Professor Worby’s profile.

International experts gather to seek sea ice solutions
http://acecrc.org.au/news/comnap-sea-ice-challenges-workshop
Antarctic climate and ecosystems cooperative research centre. COMNAP SEA ICE WORKSHOP. International experts gather to seek sea ice solutions. The impact of changing sea ice conditions on Antarctic operators will be the focus of a major international workshop in Hobart this week. COMNAP Executive Secretary Michelle Rogan-Finnemore said the two day meeting will examine the latest scientific advice on the causes and likely future trends in sea ice cover, as well as identify potential solutions. This is the...

Dr Michel Tsamados | September Arctic sea-ice minimum predicted by spring melt-pond fraction
http://www.micheltsamados.co.uk/september
September Arctic sea-ice minimum predicted by spring melt-pond fraction. April 22, 2014. Middot; Add Comment. Relative to the 1979-2000 baseline, September 2012 showed a reduction of Arctic sea ice extent (SIE) of 49%, and a reduction of sea ice volume of 72% (PIOMAS estimate confirmed by CryoSat2 observations, [ Overland2013. This situation calls for a reevaluation of the physical processes involving sea ice in these models. Over the last decade we have used at the Centre for Polar Observation and M...

Antarctic ice shelves thinned rapidly in last decade
http://acecrc.org.au/news/antarctic-ice-shelves-thinned-rapidly-in-last-decade
Antarctic climate and ecosystems cooperative research centre. Antarctic ice shelves thinned rapidly in last decade. PM (ABC): The ice surrounding Antarctica has thinned rapidly in the last decade, and much faster than scientists had thought. A new study looked at satellite data going back to 1994, and it showed that some Antarctic ice shelves had melted by almost 20 per cent. Presented by Bridget Brennan.
