Variability in sea-ice thickness over the North Pole from 1977 to 1990 / Alfred S. McLaren, John S. Walsh, R.H. Bourke, Ronald L.S. Weaver, Walter I. Wittmann.
Title: | Variability in sea-ice thickness over the North Pole from 1977 to 1990 / Alfred S. McLaren, John S. Walsh, R.H. Bourke, Ronald L.S. Weaver, Walter I. Wittmann. |
Author(s): | McLaren, Alfred S. Walsh, John S. Bourke, R. H. Weaver, Ronald L. S. Wittmann, Walter I. |
Date: | 1992. |
In: | Nature. (1992.), Vol. 358(6383) (1992) |
Abstract: | Presents analysis of measurements of subsurface ice thickness collected during six submarine cruises in spring. Results show considerable interannual variability in mean ice draft and in open-water extent. This variability limits confidence that can be placed in any apparent trends observed for sea-ice thickness or type since late 1970s, and illustrates need for reliable baseline against which to assess future trends. |
