    • Retrieval of Snow Depth on Arctic Sea Ice From Surface-Based, Polarimetric, Dual-Frequency Radar Altimetry 

      Willatt, Rosemary; Stroeve, Julienne; Nandan, Vishnu; Newman, Thomas; Mallett, Robbie; Hendricks, Stefan; Ricker, Robert; Mead, James; Itkin, Polona; Tonboe, Rasmus; Wagner, David N.; Spreen, Gunnar; Liston, Glen; Schneebeli, Martin; Krampe, Daniela; Tsamados, Michel; Demir, Oguz; Wilkinson, Jeremy; Jaggi, Matthias; Zhou, Lu; Huntemann, Marcus; Raphael, Ian A.; Jutila, Arttu; Oggier, Marc (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-10-18)
      Snow depth on sea ice is an Essential Climate Variable and a major source of uncertainty in satellite altimetry-derived sea ice thickness. During winter of the MOSAiC Expedition, the “KuKa” dual-frequency, fully polarized Ku- and Ka-band radar was deployed in “stare” nadir-looking mode to investigate the possibility of combining these two frequencies to retrieve snow depth. Three approaches ...

    • Sea ice and snow characteristics from year-long transects at the MOSAiC Central Observatory 

      Itkin, Polona; Hendricks, Stefan; Webster, Melinda A.; Albedyll, Luisa von; Arndt, Stefanie; Divine, Dmitry; Jaggi, Matthias; Oggier, Marc; Raphael, Ian A.; Ricker, Robert; Rohde, Jan; Schneebeli, Martin; Liston, Glen E. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-02-16)
      Repeated transects have become the backbone of spatially distributed ice and snow thickness measurements crucial for understanding of ice mass balance. Here we detail the transects at the Multidisciplinary drifting Observatory for the Study of Arctic Climate (MOSAiC) 2019–2020, which represent the first such measurements collected across an entire season. Compared with similar historical transects, ...

    • Snowfall and snow accumulation during the MOSAiC winter and spring seasons 

      Wagner, David N.; Shupe, Matthew D.; Cox, Christopher; Persson, Ola G.; Uttal, Taneil; Frey, Markus M.; Kirchgaessner, Amélie; Schneebeli, Martin; Jaggi, Matthias; MacFarlane, Amy R.; Itkin, Polona; Arndt, Stefanie; Hendricks, Stefan; Krampe, Daniela; Nicolaus, Marcel; Ricker, Robert; Regnery, Julia; Kolabutin, Nikolai; Shimanshuck, Egor; Oggier, Marc; Raphael, Ian; Stroeve, Julienne; Lehning, Michael (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-06-17)
      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 (November 2019 to May 2020). We computed cumulative snow water equivalent (SWE) over the sea ice based on snow depth and density retrievals from a ...

    • Sub-kilometre scale distribution of snow depth on Arctic sea ice from Soviet drifting stations 

      Mallett, Robbie; Stroeve, Julienne C.; Tsamados, Michel; Willatt, Rosemary; Newman, Thomas; Nandan, Vishnu; Landy, Jack Christopher; Itkin, Polona; Oggier, Marc; Jaggi, Matthias; Perovich, Don (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-04-04)
      The sub-kilometre scale distribution of snow depth on Arctic sea ice impacts atmosphere-ice fluxes of energy and mass, and is of importance for satellite estimates of sea-ice thickness from both radar and lidar altimeters. While information about the mean of this distribution is increasingly available from modelling and remote sensing, the full distribution cannot yet be resolved. We analyse 33 539 ...
