This project advances sea ice and Arctic weather prediction modeling by establishing observation technologies that will support related forecast modeling within and outside of NOAA. These efforts target the dynamic and thermodynamic processes that regulate the transformation of ice. Areas of research include (i) modeling representations of coupled system processes, (ii) the causes, consequences, and predictability of extreme events; and (iii) the energetic exchanges between sea ice and the atmosphere that is associated with cyclones and air mass advection.
