AMOC is upheld by cooling in the north. But where is north? @jakobdoerr.bsky.social and colleagues from the Bjerknes Centre, @unibergen.bsky.social, @nansensenteret.bsky.social, @stockholm-uni.bsky.social and @noc.ac.uk investigate dense water formation in the Arctic. bjerknes.uib.no/en/news/golf...

Polar oceans influence the Gulf Stream

The warm Gulf Stream is maintained by coldness. The Barents Sea is a cooling machine.

By applying a tracking method to both climate models and satellite data, @davyclimate.bsky.social found that sea ice age is a more sensitive indicator of change than ice thickness or volume. 🧪🌊 Read the publication here: agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10....

A Fair Assessment of Sea Ice Age Reduces Bias and Gives New Insight to Arctic Sea Ice Dynamics

We applied the same algorithm for diagnosing sea ice age in observations to a climate model for the first time The derived sea ice age reproduces the model dynamics but has much lower bias compar...

Good news for the Gulf Stream! A study from @unibergen.bsky.social, the Bjerknes Centre and @ox.ac.uk indicates that the Arctic Ocean compensates for less deep water formation farther south. @mariusarthun.bsky.social @ailinbrakstad.bsky.social @jakobdoerr.bsky.social

In our project "Overturning circulation in the new Arctic" (ArMOC) we have deployed two Argo floats in the Arctic (north of Svalbard). A short story on the mission of Knoll & Tott here: bjerknes.uib.no/en/article/n... With Stefanie Semper, Birgit Rinde and @jakobdoerr.bsky.social

Buoys on Expedition in the Arctic Ocean

Two instrument-laden buoys ("Knoll" and "Tott") were recently released north of Svalbard, soon to disappear beneath the ice.

The northern Barents Sea could be 7 degrees warmer in 2050. Two scenarios, one a 4 degree increase and the other a 2.5 increase showed similar results. "One of the main findings is that you can't see a difference between these scenarios in 2050," says researcher Marius Årthun, with UiB and BCCR.🧪🌊

Starting in 2025, March 21 becomes the #WorldDayForGlaciers 🧊. Living in Norway I know the white beauties' magic 🏔️❄️ - being German, I know how it is to lose all of them in the next decade. What are the costs of cultural and environmental heritage for our limitless emissions? #ClimateAction

New paper alert: While ice-free conditions in September are now likely unavoidable, with first ice-free days possible within the next decade & likely before 2050, future emissions will determine how frequently & for how long the Arctic will be ice-free. rdcu.be/dApgx

I'm excited for #OSM24! If you are interested in sea-ice variability, come see my talk on Thursday at 9:36 AM about causal links between Barents-Kara sea ice and oceanic and atmospheric drivers. Preprint here: doi.org/10.22541/ess... @bjerknes.bsky.social Also happy to meet, hang out, or discuss 🙂

Check out our new paper on the contribution of vapor fluxes to the surface mass balance of the Greenland Ice Sheet! 🧐🤓 tc.copernicus.org/articles/18/... We find that sublimation is a major driver of the summer SMB in the accumulation zone, removing about a third of the snowfall in June and July. 🌨️
