Lukovich et al, 4.3, n / a, Heuristic It is hypothesized that the 2012 fall sea ice extent will attain values comparable to those of 2011 based on a heuristic assessment of sea ice and surface atmospheric dynamics, with regional losses governed by local wind and ice conditions.

Strong katabatic winds related to the ice sheets (shown tentatively as stippled black arrows), were probably responsible for ice - free polynya - type conditions off the major ice sheets, causing phytoplankton and sea - ice algae productivity recorded in cores PS2138 - 3 and PS2757 - 8 (for the region off the Greenland - Laurentide Ice Sheet no proof from sediment cores are available.

Such an extended ice sheet associated with strong katabatic winds should have caused polynya - like open - water conditions in front of the ice sheet (Fig. 5a), resulting in increased fluxes of phytoplankton, ice algae and terrigenous matter as observed in the PS2757 - 8 record (Fig. 2c and Fig. 6, Scenario 2), i.e., a situation similar to that proposed for the Barents Sea continental margin (Fig. 5a) 57, 58.

Harvey's rapid intensification from a tropical depression to an 85 - mile - per - hour hurricane in less than 24 hours was due to favorable conditions — warm water and low wind shear [29]-- in the Gulf of Mexico, where sea surface temperatures were up to 2.7 - 7.2 °F (1.5 - 4 °C) above the 1961 - 1990 average.

Further, it only took one month of persistent wind conditions to slow the rate of sea ice loss, resulting in an increase in 2009 sea ice extent compared to 2007 and 2008.

September 2008 sea ice extent was driven by preexisting conditions at the end of spring, as well as variable wind patterns over the summer.

In years such as 2008, initial sea ice conditions at the end of spring may have more of an influence on a September arctic sea ice extent Outlook than a forecast of summer wind fields, which dominated the ice situation in 2007.

As noted last month, this range depends in part on the relative weight that the respondents give to «initial conditions,» e.g., age and thickness of sea ice at the end of spring, versus whether summer winds in 2008 will be as supportive for ice loss as the favorable winds were in 2007.
