Since the marginal ice zone of the Arctic Ocean is a highly dynamic environment, it is crucial to track the position of the ice edge in order to define AUV (Autonomous Underwater Vehicle) mission parameters

The figure shows a land-sea configuration during the Middle Miocene (~15 million years ago) as incorporated in a complex Earth System Model. For example changes in oceanic gateways [...] between classic hypotheses for glaciations that involve e.g. tectonic changes and associated changes in ocean circulation or declining atmospheric CO 2 in combination with the Earth’s orbital configuration.

production of data set time series of variables that describe the state of the atmosphere, land, ocean and the cryosphere. Sea ice is listed as one of the 13 Essential Climate Variables and the aim of [...] group is to produce datasets of sea ice concentration sea ice thickness sea ice drift that include Arctic and Antarctic sea ice and the respective uncertainties. The data sets both parameters will consist [...] thickness time series from data of the ERS-1, ERS-2, EnviSat and CryoSat-2 radar altimeter missions of Arctic and Antarctic sea ice. The production of a time-series of Antarctic sea-ice thickness is based on

Since the ocean floor in the Arctic is insulated by water and sea ice, one might assume there was no permafrost there. But guess [...] latitudes of the Arctic and Antarctic, a minor rise is enough to set off thawing. To FAQ element Why are permafrost coasts increasingly collapsing?
