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.
