Return of the Maud Rise Polynya: Climate litmus or sea ice anomaly? [In: State of the Climate in 2017] Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society, 2018 (Ref: 17043)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

The Maud Rise polynya is a persistent area of open water within the sea ice cover of the Southern Ocean, which overlies an area of elevated topography called Maud Rise (66°S, 3°E) located in the eastern sector of the Weddell Sea (Fig. SB6.1a).

Variations in Antarctic sea ice freeboard and thickness distributions from ICESat data International Workshop on Antarctic Sea Ice Thickness, Program and Abstracts, Hobart, Australia 5-7 July 2006, 2006 (Ref: 12964)
Category 3: Abstract

Sea ice freeboard distributions are detennined from ICESat measurements of mean surface … elevations with a range precision of -2 cm over 70 m footprints spaced by 170 m along … track. Freeboard (snow cover plus sea ice) distributions are constructed from elevation … measurements within :i:

Reassessing the input-output mass budget of East Antarctica between 50°E and 140°E. Abstracts presented at 'Understanding Sea Level Rise and Variability' - A World Climate Research Programme Workshop and WCRP Contribution to the Global Earth Observation System of Systems, Paris, France, 6-9 June 2006., 2006 (Ref: 12579)
Authors:
Category 3: Poster

Accurate assessments of the past and future mass budgets of polar ice sheets are essential to resolving contributions to past sea-level rise and projecting responses to climate change respectively. Both tasks require that ice accumulation and ice flow are each accurately described…
