Lukovich et al. (Centre for Earth Observation Science, U. of Manitoba); 4.6; Heuristic - Dynamics Investigation of dynamical atmospheric contributions in spring to sea ice conditions in fall, based on comparison of 2011 and 2007 stratospheric and surface winds and sea level pressure (SLP) in April and May suggests regional
differences in sea ice extent in fall, in a manner consistent with recent studies
highlighting the importance of coastal geometry in
seasonal interpretations of sea ice cover (Eisenman, 2010).
