Polar cyclones, intense atmospheric low-pressure systems, are responsible for the Arctic Ocean’s most extreme weather events and can have a profound impact on sea ice. Data: ERA-5. Animation: @oyvindocean Read more: instagram.com/p/DAIn35NPCpk/

🧵 The Nansen Legacy has come to an end today, 1 July 2024, after six years! 🤧
Thanks for following our journey.
We have learned so much, and we have increased the understanding of the Barents Sea system considerably and hope you all learned something too!
1/2
Merry Christmas, global ocean circulation! Thanks for all your hard work - the North Atlantic wouldn't be the same without you.

The colossus has awoken. #Iceberg #A23a is on the move almost 40 years after it calved from the Filchner Ice Shelf. For nearly all the intervening time, it's been stuck in the Weddell Sea bottom-muds. It's now about to spill beyond Antarctica @BAS_News bbc.co.uk/news/science-envir…

And global sea-ice extent has now set a new *all-time* record low...
➡️ Arctic (2nd lowest on record for date) + Antarctic (lowest on record for date)
[Graphics: zacklabe.com/global-sea-ice-…. Data from nsidc.org/data/seaice_index for the satellite-era. I am using a 5-day running mean.]
ALT Line graph time series of 2023's daily global sea ice extent in red shading compared to each year from 1979 to 2022 using shades of purple to white for each line for between the months of January and April. The year 2018 is also highlighted in yellow, which is the previous absolute record low. There is substantial interannual and daily variability.

Warm and swirly! The inflow of Atlantic Water transports heat, nutrients, and organisms to the Arctic Ocean.
(Colors show modelled ocean temperature at 100 m depth)
Based on output from from the A4K ROMS model developed by Tore Hattermann and others at @norskpolar. Visualization inspired by @oceanographer.
Back ashore after a successful @nansenlegacy mooring and hydrography cruise! Helped by fair winds (mostly), zero sea ice, and fantastic people on an excellent ship. Always a relief to see those yellow buoys pop up on the ocean surface..
November 2019, northern Barents Sea. The ship travels through a sea of darkness and the air is biting cold. Below the sea ice, instrumented moorings observe something strange: warm currents are flowing in from the north...
We explain what happens in a new paper in Ocean Science!
