Nicole SharpGrowing IceWhile much attention is given to the summer loss of sea ice, the birth of new ice in the fall is also critical. Ice loss in the summer leaves oceans warmer and waves larger since wind can blow across longer open stretches. Those warmer waters and more dynamic waves affect how ice forms once autumn sets in. Higher waves mean that ice tends to form in “pancakes” like those seen here. Pancake ice is small — typically under 1 meter wide — and can only be observed from nearby, since they’re smaller than typical satellite resolution. Only once there’s enough pancake ice to dampen the waves will the pieces begin to cement together to form larger pieces that will form the basis of the year’s new ice.

If you listen closely, you can hear its soft whisper. <a href="https://dresden.network/tags/GreatPlains" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GreatPlains</a> <a href="https://dresden.network/tags/PancakeIce" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PancakeIce</a>

Dr. Laurence DykeThe last gasp of sunset as katabatic storm clouds plummet off the Antarctic continent. Within half an hour Ross Island was completely enveloped in a maelstrom of wind and snow.This storm heralded the start of Autumn and brought an end to an incredible weather window which we used to explore McMurdo Sound. Time to escape from the clutches of the freezing sea.<a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/PancakeIce" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PancakeIce</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/RossSea" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#RossSea</a>
