Abstract

The Arctic region is undergoing significant changes in maritime accessibility. This study investigates observed ship trajectories from 2013 to 2020 to demonstrate the recent trends of Arctic traffic. A notable surge in maritime activities has been observed, particularly during summer months, driven by economic interests and the increasing popularity of existing routes. Unique patterns in the northern Barents Sea have been observed where ships favour different routes based on seasonal ice conditions. Another contribution from this work is the validation of the Arctic Traffic Accessibility Model (ATAM) using the observed ship traffic data. Results show that the ATAM model underestimates the accessibility and vessel travel speed. This is largely due to outdated model parameters. The predefined ice multipliers and calculation of ice numerals used in the ATAM may not accurately reflect real-world conditions.

Abstract

Abstract Antarctic ice sheet (AIS) mass loss is predominantly driven by increased solid ice discharge, but its variability is governed by surface processes. Snowfall fluctuations control the surface mass balance (SMB) of the grounded AIS, while meltwater ponding can trigger ice shelf collapse potentially accelerating discharge. Surface processes are essential to quantify AIS mass change, but remain poorly represented in climate models typically running at 25-100 km resolution. Here we present SMB and surface melt products statistically downscaled to 2 km resolution for the contemporary climate (1979-2021) and low, moderate and high-end warming scenarios until 2100. We show that statistical downscaling modestly enhances contemporary SMB (3%), which is sufficient to reconcile modelled and satellite mass change. Furthermore, melt strongly increases (46%), notably near the grounding line, in better agreement with in-situ and satellite records. The melt increase persists by 2100 in all warming scenarios, revealing higher surface melt rates than previously estimated.

3. Statistical downscaling increases Antarctic ice sheet surface melt rate

Abstract

Although recent mass loss of the Antarctic ice sheet (AIS) is predominantly driven by ice shelf thinning and increased solid ice discharge, surface processes also directly affect mass changes. Snowfall fluctuations control the variability in surface mass balance (SMB) of the grounded AIS, while meltwater ponding threatens the viability of floating ice shelves. Surface processes are thus essential to quantify present and project future AIS mass loss, but remain poorly represented in climate models running at 25-100 km spatial resolution. Here we present new, daily Antarctic SMB products at 2 km resolution, statistically downscaled from the output of RACMO2.3p2 at 27 km resolution, for the contemporary climate (1979-2021) and a low, moderate and high-end warming scenario until 2100. We show that statistical downscaling to 2 km resolution modestly enhances contemporary SMB (+8%) but strongly increases melt (+50%), notably in the vicinity of the grounding line, in better agreement with both in situ and remote sensing records. The melt increase in the downscaled products persists in the future projections irrespective of the scenario, suggesting a systematic underestimate in low-resolution (regional) climate models.

4. Atmospheric response to reduced Antarctic sea ice drives ice sheet mass and energy flux anomalies

Author

Luke Trusel, Jessica Kromer, and Jan Lenaerts

Abstract

The mass balance of the Antarctic ice sheet is intricately linked to the state of the atmosphere and ocean surrounding the continent. As a direct result, improving projections of future sea level change relies on understanding change in the Antarctic atmosphere and Southern Ocean, as well as the processes that couple these systems. Here, we explore the influence of sea ice cover on the overlying atmosphere and subsequently the energy and mass budgets of the adjacent Antarctic ice sheet. We investigate these processes using simulations of the Community Earth System Model 2 (CESM2) developed as part of the Polar Amplification Model Intercomparison Project (PAMIP). Specifically, we explore an ensemble of atmosphere-only time slice experiments where the sea ice cover is altered. Results highlight atmospheric warming in all seasons in response to sea ice loss, but particularly pronounced warming at the surface and during non-summer seasons. Sea ice reductions further drive positive anomalies in atmospheric moisture and liquid-bearing clouds, resulting in both enhanced precipitation and downward longwave radiative fluxes over the ice sheet, particularly in West Antarctica. We furthermore explore the impact of sea ice loss on primary modes of atmospheric variability, including the Amundsen Sea low and Southern Annular Mode. These results highlight the potential impact and importance of proper simulation of the Southern Ocean sea ice cover for determining the surface mass balance of the adjacent Antarctic ice sheet. Given that the current generation of coupled climate models struggle with representing observed sea ice dynamics, our results indicate this may likely contribute to uncertainties in the simulation of recent and future Antarctic ice sheet mass balance.

Abstract

Projections of the sea level contribution from the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets (GrIS and AIS) rely on atmospheric and oceanic drivers obtained from climate models. The Earth System Models participating in the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project phase 6 (CMIP6) generally project greater future warming compared with the previous Coupled Model Intercomparison Project phase 5 (CMIP5) effort. Here we use four CMIP6 models and a selection of CMIP5 models to force multiple ice sheet models as part of the Ice Sheet Model Intercomparison Project for CMIP6 (ISMIP6). We find that the projected sea level contribution at 2100 from the ice sheet model ensemble under the CMIP6 scenarios falls within the CMIP5 range for the Antarctic ice sheet but is significantly increased for Greenland. Warmer atmosphere in CMIP6 models results in higher Greenland mass loss due to surface melt. For Antarctica, CMIP6 forcing is similar to CMIP5 and mass gain from increased snowfall counteracts increased loss due to ocean warming.

Abstract

Projection of the contribution of ice sheets to sea level change as part of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6 (CMIP6) takes the form of simulations from coupled ice sheet-climate models and stand-alone ice sheet models, overseen by the Ice Sheet Model Intercomparison Project for CMIP6 (ISMIP6). This paper describes the experimental setup for process-based sea level change projections to be performed with stand-alone Greenland and Antarctic ice sheet models in the context of ISMIP6. The ISMIP6 protocol relies on a suite of polar atmospheric and oceanic CMIP-based forcing for ice sheet models, in order to explore the uncertainty in projected sea level change due to future emissions scenarios, CMIP models, ice sheet models, and parameterizations for ice-ocean interactions. We describe here the approach taken for defining the suite of ISMIP6 stand-alone ice sheet simulations, document the experimental framework and implementation, and present an overview of the ISMIP6 forcing to be used by participating ice sheet modeling groups., SCOPUS: ar.j, info:eu-repo/semantics/published
