      Ezau, Igor; Pettersson, Lasse h; Cancet, Mathilde; Chapron, Bertrand; Chernokulsky, Alexander; Donlon, Craig James; Sizov, Oleg; Soromotin, Andrei; Johannessen, Johnny Andre (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-02-28)
      Arctic climate change has already resulted in amplified and accelerated regional warming, or the Arctic amplification. Satellite observations have captured this climate phenomenon in its development and in sufficient spatial details. As such, these observations have been—and still are—indispensable for monitoring of the amplification in this remote and inhospitable region, which is sparsely covered ...

      The Sea surface KInematics Multiscale monitoring (SKIM) satellite mission is designed to explore ocean surface current and waves. This includes tropical currents, notably the poorly known patterns of divergence and their impact on the ocean heat budget, and monitoring of the emerging Arctic up to 82.5°N. SKIM will also make unprecedented direct measurements of strong currents, from boundary currents ...
