Role of Ice Mechanics on Snow Viscoplasticity
Vedrine + Hagenmuller + Bernard ...
The porous structure of snow becomes denser with time under gravity, primarily due to the creep of its ice matrix with viscoplasticity. Despite investigation of this behavior...

An Ensemble Learning Model Reveals Accelerated Reductions in Snow Depth Over Arctic Sea Ice Under High‐Emission Scenarios
Li + ke + Cai ...
There are significant differences in snow depth predictions among different earth system models, and many models underestimate snow depth, restricting their application. Here,...

Modeling the Winter Heat Conduction Through the Sea Ice System During MOSAiC
Lorenzo Zampieri + David Clemens‐Sewall + Anne Sledd ...
Models struggle to accurately simulate observed sea ice thickness changes, which could be partially due to inadequate representation of thermodynamic processes. We analyzed...

Arctic Freeboard and Snow Depth From Near‐Coincident CryoSat‐2 and ICESat‐2 (CRYO2ICE) Observations: A First Examination of Winter Sea Ice During 2020–2022
Renée M. Fredensborg Hansen + Henriette Skourup + Eero Rinne ...
In the summer of 2020, ESA changed the orbit of CryoSat‐2 to align periodically with NASA's ICESat‐2 mission, a campaign known as CRYO2ICE, which allows for near‐coincident...

An Examination of Water‐Related Melt Processes in Arctic Snow on Tundra and Sea‐Ice
Pinzner + Sturm + Andrew R Mahoney ...
From April through June in 2019 and 2022, we monitored snow melt at three sites near Utqiaġvik, Alaska. Along 200‐m lines we measured snow depth, density, stratigraphy,...
