Seasonal sea ice retreat in 2012 began with a major reduction event in early June (Figure 2) associated with persistent high pressure over the Beaufort Sea and low pressure over the Kara Sea, now referred to as the Arctic Dipole (AD) weather pattern (see discussion of the AD in previous Outlooks).

With regard to summer meteorological forcing, 2007 was dominated by a strong dipole pattern in sea level pressure (SLP), with high pressure over the Beaufort Sea and winds blowing from the Bering Strait across the North Pole, promoting both advection of warm air and compaction of the ice pack.

Lukovich et al. (Centre for Earth Observation Science, U. of Manitoba); 4.4 to 4.5; Heuristic - Dynamics The absence of a strong and persistent sea level pressure high over the Beaufort in July together with the absence of spatial homogeneity in the springtime sea ice drift fields suggest that continued sea ice decline will be an artifact of increased temperatures and thermodynamic forcing rather than the considerable dynamical contributions seen in summer of 2007.

While the DA was replaced by low sea level pressure (SLP) over the Arctic Ocean in July, high pressure returned over the Beaufort Sea in August coupled with low pressure over Siberia, helping to compress ice towards the pole and bring warm air into the Arctic.
