West Antarctic Peninsula sea ice in 2005: Extreme ice compaction and ice edge retreat due to strong anomaly with respect to climate Journal of Geophysical Research, 2008 (Ref: 13660)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

In September–October 2005, the juxtaposition of low- and high-pressure anomalies at … 130W and 60W, respectively, created strong and persistent northerly airflow across the … West Antarctic Peninsula (WAP). This had a major impact on regional sea ice conditions…

A new ENSO proxy from the Law Dome ice core SCAR/IASC IPY Open Science Conference, St. Petersburg, Russia, July 8-11 2008. Abstract Volume, 2008 (Ref: 13646)
Category 3: Abstract

Ice cores provide a suite of proxy variables which respond to potentially complex and non-linear interactions between … many climatic and environmental variables. This complexity can obscure identification of links between ice core … measurements and classical climate variables.

Rapid development and persistence of a massive Antarctic sea ice tongue Journal of Geophysical Research, 2008 (Ref: 13663)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

An extraordinary sea ice tongue developed near 85E over a period of 30 days in … April–May 2002. The ice tongue extended to the north more than 800 km from the … surrounding ice edge and covered an area greater than 200,000 km2.

Fast-ice distribution in East Antarctica during 1997 and 1999 determined using RADARSAT data Journal of Geophysical Research, 2008 (Ref: 13662)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

We present the first detailed maps of fast ice around East Antarctica (75E–170E), using an image correlation technique applied to RADARSAT ScanSAR images from … November in 1997 and 1999. This method is based upon searching for, and distinguishing…

Ice shelf disintegration by plate bending and hydro-fracture: Satellite observations and model results of the 2008 Wilkins ice shelf break-ups Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 2009 (Ref: 13659)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Satellite remote sensing observations of three break-up events in 2008 for the Wilkins Ice Shelf (28 February … to 6 March, 27 May to 31 May, and 28 June to mid-July) provide unprecedented detail of ice shelf calving … during rapid break-up.

Fast ice distribution in Adélie Land, East Antarctica: interannual variability and implications for emperor penguins Aptenodytes forsteri Marine Ecology Progress Series, 2009 (Ref: 13658)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Antarctic fast ice is of key climatic and ecological importance, yet its distribution and … variability are poorly understood. We present a detailed analysis of fast ice along the Adélie Land coast … (East Antarctica) using satellite data from 1992 to 1999.
